Capo 6
 
 
[Intro]
 
Em C D Em x2
 
 
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
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
               Em    G
If this is to end in fire
               D          C
Then we should all burn together
          Em           G      D        Am7
Watch the flames climb higher into the night
 
        Em      G         D            C
Calling out for the rope, stand by and we will
          Am7         G/B           C
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side - high
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
Em  C  D  Em
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
                 Em    G
And if we should die tonight
               D         C
Then we should all die together
        Em       G    D         Am
Raise a glass of wine   for the last time
 
        Em      G         D          C
Calling out for the rope, prepare as we will
          Am7         G/B           C
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
     Am7   G/B            C
Desolation comes upon the sky
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          Em   C  D          Em
Now I see fire,   inside the mountain
      Em   C  D           Em
I see fire,   burning the trees
          Em   C  D         Em
And I see fire,   hollowing souls
          Em   C  D            Am7
And I see fire,   blood in the breeze
 
And I hope that you remember me
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
Em C D Em x2
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
              Em     G
Oh, should my people fall then
       D           C
Surely I'll do the same
            Em       G
Confined in mountain halls
           D            C
We got too close to the flame
 
        Em      G         D          C
Calling out for the rope, prepare as we will
          Am7         G/B           C
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
     Am7   G/B            C
Desolation comes upon the sky
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          Em   C  D          Em
Now I see fire,   inside the mountain
      Em   C  D           Em
I see fire,   burning the trees
          Em   C  D         Em
And I see fire,   hollowing souls
          Em   C  D            Am7
And I see fire,   blood in the breeze
 
And I hope that you remember me
 
 
[Bridge]
 
           Am7      Em
And if the night is burning
       G        D
I will cover my eyes
           Am7    Em
For if the dark returns then
   G             D
My brothers will die
           Am7            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
 
 
[Chorus/Outro]
 
          Em   C  D          Em
Now I see fire,   inside the mountain
      Em   C  D           Em
I see fire,   burning the trees
          Em   C  D         Em
And I see fire,   hollowing souls
          Em   C  D            Am7
And I see fire,   blood in the breeze
 
        Em         C                     D   Em
I see fire                               fire
           (oh you know I saw a city burning)
 
        Em         C                   D   Em
I see fire                             fire
           (feel the heat upon my skin)
 
        Em         C                   D     Em
I see fire                             fire
            (Oooohh)
          Em        C             D        Em
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

I think the lyrics are 'calling out father old' not 'calling out for the rope'
