[Verse 1]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
Far over the misty mountains cold
Emin Gmaj Amin
To dungeons deep and caverns old
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
We must away, ere break of day
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
To seek our pale enchanted gold
[Verse 2]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells
Emin Gmaj Amin
While hammers fell like ringing bells
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
In places deep, where dark things sleep
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
In hollow halls beneath the fells
[Verse 3]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
For ancient king and elvish lord
Emin Gmaj Amin
There many a gleaming golden hoard
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
To hide in gems on hilt of sword
[Verse 4]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
On silver necklaces they strung
Emin Gmaj Amin
The flowering stars on crowns they hung
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
The dragon-fire in twisted wire
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
They meshed the light of moon and sun
[Verse 5]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
Far over the misty mountains cold
Emin Gmaj Amin
To dungeons deep and caverns old
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
We must away, ere break of day
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
To claim our long-forgotten gold
[Verse 6]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
Goblets they carved there for themselves
Emin Gmaj Amin
And harps of gold, where no man delves
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
There lay they long, and many a song
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
Was sung unheard by men or elves
[Verse 7]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
The pines were roaring on the heights
Emin Gmaj Amin
The winds was moaning in the night
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
The fire was red, it flaming spread
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
The trees like torches blazed with light
[Verse 8]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
The bells were ringing in the dale
Emin Gmaj Amin
And men looked up with faces pale
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
The dragon's ire, more fierce than fire
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
Laid low their towers and houses frail
[Verse 9]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
The mountain smoked beneath the moon
Emin Gmaj Amin
The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
They fled their hall to dying fall
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon
[Verse 10]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
Far over the misty mountains grim
Emin Gmaj Amin
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
Cmaj Amin Csus2 Emin
We must away, ere break of day
Emin Cmaj G/B Amin
To win our harps and gold from him
[Outro]
Emin Amin Cmaj Amin
Far over the misty mountains cold
Emin Gmaj Amin
To dungeons deep and caverns old

Always wanted to learn this haunting tune. I am pretty sure that the first chord is Emin(add 2) which sounds good in this format: Make a barre chord Emin7 rooted on the A string (7th fret) and then put your pinky on the 11th fret G string. It’s a stretch but that chord is what gives it that haunting vibe. Sounds good if you pick the strings up and down individually. I assume that the version everyone is familiar with is from the animated Hobbit movie. I think a lot of these chords are not exactly right or need extensions but thanks for the jumping off point.
