[Intro]
 
N.C.
Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
N.C.
Keep careful watch of my brother's souls
N.C.
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
N.C.                       Em*
Keep watching over Durin's sons

[Verse]
              Em     G
If this is to end in fire
              D        C
Then we shall all burn together
          Em         G
Watch the flames climb high
D        Am7
Into the night
        Em           G
Calling out father oh
D            C
Stand by and we will
          Em          G
Watch the flames burn auburn on
    D        C
the mountain side

                 Em      G
And if we should die today
         D       C
We shall all die together
        Em       G
Raise a glass of wine
D       Am7
For the last time
        Em     G
Calling out father oh
D          C
Prepare as we will
          Am          Bm
Watch the flames burn auburn on
     C
the mountain side
Am         Bm              C
Desolation comes upon the sky
 
 
[Chorus]
          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
I see fire
D           Em
Burn in the breeze
      Am*
And I hope that you remember me

[Verse]
             Em     G
Oh should my people fall then
      D            C
Surely I'll do the same
             Em       G
Come find in mountain halls we
         D           Am7
Got too close to the flame
        Em        G
Calling out father oh
D             C
Hold fast and we will
          Em          G
Watch the flames burn auburn on
    D        C
the mountain side
    Am     Bm             C
Desolation comes upon the sky
 
 
[Chorus]

Now I see fire

Inside the mountain

And I see fire
D         Em

[Bridge]
           Am       Em
And if the night is burning
       G        D
I will cover my eyes
           Am     Em
For if the dark returns
        G             D
then my brothers will die
           Am             Em
And as the sky is falling down it
        G                D
Crashed into this lonely town
          Am
With that shadow upon the ground
   G/B    Cadd9             D
I hear my people screaming out
 
 
[Chorus]
          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
I see fire
D           Em
Burn in the breeze
 
      Em    C                   D            C
I see fire (Oh you know I saw a city burning out)(fire)
 
      Em    C                     D     C
I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin, yeah)(fire)
 
      Em    C      D  C
I see fire  (uh-uh-uh-uh)(fire)
          Em        C             D        C
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

Better version of the song. Found a shitty version before where the author didnt know what a verse is, so this one is nice.
