(Verses)
OBS: the D# note (11th freth) may be played one octave lower than notated.
But you can't do it with a guitar, only with a bass.
So I put the note higher than the correct.

Lyrics
(Capo: 6)
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
(Solo guitar)
Em G
If this is to end in fire
D C
Then we shall burn together
Em G D Am7
Watch the flames climb high into the night
Em G D C
Calling out father oh, stand by and we will
Am7 Bm7 C
Watch the flames burn on and on the moutainside
(Solo Guitar)
(Verse)
Em C
Now I see fire
D Em
Inside the mountain
Em C
I see fire
D Em
Burning the trees
Em C
And I see fire
D Em
Hollowing souls
Em C
And I see fire
D Am7
Burning the breeze
Am7
And I hope that you remember me
(Solo Violin and Cello)
Repeat the verses and chorus until the end.
That's it. Thanks
Enjoy the music.
