I See Fire
Ed Sheeran
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 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 high into the night
Em G D C
Calling out father, oh, stand by and we will
Am7 Bm C
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
[Verse 2]
Em G
And if we should die tonight
D C
Then we should all die together
Em G D Am7
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
Em G D C
Calling out father, oh, prepare as we will
Am7 Bm C
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
Am7 Bm 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
I see fire, blood in the breeze
And I hope that you'll remember me
[Verse 2]
Em G
Oh, should my people fall
D C
Then surely I'll do the same
Em G
Confined in mountain halls
D Am7
We got too close to the flame
Em G D C
Calling out father, oh, hold fast and we will
Am7 Bm C
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
Am7 Bm 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
I see fire, blood in the breeze
Am7
And I hope that you'll remember me
[Bridge]
Am7 Em
And if the night is burning
D C
I will cover my eyes
Am7 Em
For if the dark returns then
D CMaj7
My brothers will die
Am7 Em
And as the sky is falling down
D C
It crashed into this lonely town
Am7
And with that shadow upon the ground
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 Em
I see fire, blood in the breeze
Em C D Em
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
