[Intro]

N.C.

Oh, misty eye of the mountain below

Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls

And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke

                           Am

Keep watching over Durin's sons

[Verse 1]

              Am    C

If this is to end in fire

               G       F

Then we should all burn together

          Am          C   G       Dm7

Watch the flames climb high into the night

        Am   C        G           F

Calling out father, oh, stand by and we will

          Dm7        C/E          F

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

[Verse 2]

                 Am   C

And if we should die tonight

               G      F

Then we should all die together

        Am      C  G       Dm7

Raise a glass of wine for the last time

        Am   C        G         F

Calling out father, oh, prepare as we will

          Dm7        C/E          F

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

    Dm7   C/E           F

Desolation comes upon the sky

 

[Chorus]

          Am F G         Am

Now I see fire,  inside the mountain

      Am F G          Am

I see fire,  burning the trees

          Am F G        Am

And I see fire,  hollowing souls

      Am F G           Dm7

I see fire,  blood in the breeze

 

And I hope that you'll remember me

 

[Instrumental]

  Am          F                 G               Am

[Verse 3]

              Am    C

Oh, should my people fall

            G          F

Then surely I'll do the same

            Am      C

Confined in mountain halls

           G           Dm7

We got too close to the flame

        Am    C       G            F

Calling out father, oh, hold fast and we will

          Dm7        C/E          F

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

    Dm7   C/E           F

Desolation comes upon the sky

 

[Chorus]

          Am F G         Am

Now I see fire,  inside the mountain

      Am F G          Am

I see fire,  burning the trees

          Am F G        Am

And I see fire,  hollowing souls

      Am F G           Dm7

I see fire,  blood in the breeze

                                Dm7

And I hope that you'll remember me

[Bridge]

           Dm7     Am

And if the night is burning

       C       G

I will cover my eyes

           Dm7   Am

For if the dark returns then

   C            G

My brothers will die

           Dm7           Am

And as the sky is falling down

           C               G

It crashed into this lonely town

              Dm7

And with that shadow upon the ground

  C/E    F               G

I hear my people screaming out

 

[Chorus]

          Am F G         Am

Now I see fire,  inside the mountain

      Am F G          Am

I see fire,  burning the trees

          Am F G        Am

And I see fire,  hollowing souls

      Am F G           Am

I see fire,  blood in the breeze

 

      Am          F                G       Am

I see fire, oh you know I saw a city burning (fire)

      Am        F               G    Am

I see fire, feel the heat upon my skin (fire)

          Am  F      G Am

And I see fire, oooooo (fire)

 

          Am       F            G       Am

And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side
