Oh misty eye of the Mountain below,
Keep careful watch of my brothers’ souls,
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke,
Keep watching over Durin’s sons.

D#m B C# D#m
D#m F#If this is to end in fire,
C# G#mThen we shall all burn together,
D#m F#Watch the flames climb higher,
C# G#mInto the night.
D#m F#Calling out father oh,
C# BStand by and we will,
G#m A#mWatch the flames burn auburn on
B C#The mountainside,
D#m B C# D#m
D#m F#And if we should die tonight,
C# G#mWe should all die together.
D#m F#Raise a glass of wine,
C# G#mFor the last time.
D#m F#Calling out father oh,
C# BPrepare as we will,
G#m A#mWatch the flames burn auburn on
B C#The mountainside.
G#m A#m B C#Desolation comes upon the sky.
D#m BNow I see fire,
C# D#mInside the mountain.
D#m BI see fire,
C# D#mBurning the trees.
D#m BAnd I see fire,
C# D#mHollowing souls.
D#m BI see fire,
C# G#mBlood in the breeze.
And I’ll hope that you’ll remember me.
D#m B C# D#m
D#m F#Oh should my people fall then,
C# G#mSurely I’ll do the same.
D#m F#Confined in mountain halls,
C# G#mWe got too close to the flame.
D#m F#Calling out father oh,
C# BHold fast and we will,
G#m A#mWatch the flames burn auburn on
B C#The mountainside.
G#m A#m B C#Desolation comes upon the sky.
D#m BNow I see fire,
C# D#mInside the mountain.
D#m BI see fire,
C# D#mBurning the trees.
D#m BAnd I see fire,
C# D#mHollowing souls.
D#m BI see fire,

And I’ll hope that you’ll remember me.
G#m D#mAnd if the night is burning,
F# C#I will cover my eyes,
G#m D#mFor if the dark returns,
F# C#Then my brothers will die.
G#m D#mAnd as the sky is falling down,
F# C#It crashed into this lonely town.
G#m F#And with that shadow upon the ground,
B C#I hear my people screaming out.
D#m BAnd, I see fire,
C# D#mInside the mountain.
D#m BI see fire,
C# D#mBurning the trees.
D#m BAnd I see fire,
C# D#mHollowing souls.
D#m BI see fire,
C# D#mBlood in the breeze.
D#mI see fire,
B C#(Oh you know I saw a city burning.)
D#mFire.
D#mAnd I see fire
B C#(Feel the heat upon my skin.)
D#mFire.
D#mAnd I see fire,
B C#ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh

D#m BAnd I see fire burn auburn on,
C# D#mThe mountainside.
