Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
[Em]
Keep watching over Durin's son

Verse
[Em] [G]
If this is to end in fire
[D] [C]
Then we shall all burn together

Watch the flames climb high into the night

Calling out father, stand by and we will

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

And if we should die tonight
[D] [C]
Then we should all die together

Calling out father, prepare as we will

Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire, inside the mountain
[Em] [C] [D] [Em]
I see fire, burning the trees

I see fire, blood in the breeze
And I hope that you'll remember me

Oh, should my people fall

Then surely I'll do the same

Bridge
[Am] [Em]
And if the night is burning
[G] [D]
I will cover my eyes
[Am] [Em]
For if the dark returns then
[G] [D]
My brothers will die
[Am] [Em]
And as the sky's falling down
[G] [D]
It crashed into this lonely town
[Am7]
And with that shadow upon the ground
[G/B] [C] [D]
I hear my people screaming out

Now I see fire, inside the mountain

I see fire, oh you know I saw a city burning (fire)
[Em] [C] [D] [Em]
I see fire, feel the heat upon my skin (fire)
[Em] [C] [D] [Em]
And I see fire, oooooo (fire)
[Em] [C] [D] [Em]
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side
