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.

F#m D E F#m
F#m AIf this is to end in fire,
E BmThen we shall all burn together,
F#m AWatch the flames climb higher,
E BmInto the night.
F#m ACalling out father oh,
E DStand by and we will,
Bm C#mWatch the flames burn auburn on
D EThe mountainside,
F#m D E F#m
F#m AAnd if we should die tonight,
E BmWe should all die together.
F#m ARaise a glass of wine,
E BmFor the last time.
F#m ACalling out father oh,
E DPrepare as we will,
Bm C#mWatch the flames burn auburn on
D EThe mountainside.
Bm C#m D EDesolation comes upon the sky.
F#m DNow I see fire,
E F#mInside the mountain.
F#m DI see fire,
E F#mBurning the trees.
F#m DAnd I see fire,
E F#mHollowing souls.
F#m DI see fire,
E BmBlood in the breeze.
And I’ll hope that you’ll remember me.
F#m D E F#m
F#m AOh should my people fall then,
E BmSurely I’ll do the same.
F#m AConfined in mountain halls,
E BmWe got too close to the flame.
F#m ACalling out father oh,
E DHold fast and we will,
Bm C#mWatch the flames burn auburn on
D EThe mountainside.
Bm C#m D EDesolation comes upon the sky.
F#m DNow I see fire,
E F#mInside the mountain.
F#m DI see fire,
E F#mBurning the trees.
F#m DAnd I see fire,
E F#mHollowing souls.
F#m DI see fire,

And I’ll hope that you’ll remember me.
Bm F#mAnd if the night is burning,
A EI will cover my eyes,
Bm F#mFor if the dark returns,
A EThen my brothers will die.
Bm F#mAnd as the sky is falling down,
A EIt crashed into this lonely town.
Bm AAnd with that shadow upon the ground,
D EI hear my people screaming out.
F#m DAnd, I see fire,
E F#mInside the mountain.
F#m DI see fire,
E F#mBurning the trees.
F#m DAnd I see fire,
E F#mHollowing souls.
F#m DI see fire,
E F#mBlood in the breeze.
F#mI see fire,
D E(Oh you know I saw a city burning.)
F#mFire.
F#mAnd I see fire
D E(Feel the heat upon my skin.)
F#mFire.
F#mAnd I see fire,
D Eooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh
F#mFire.
F#m DAnd I see fire burn auburn on,
E F#mThe mountainside.
