I'm not sure how this is played. I mean it's not too easy to hear what's played.
But I think the chords should be correct.

Odd verse this one. It's just some "soloing" in the background that's
pretty hard to hear, but I think it should be correct. I also think
there's a guitar that plays the chords I've notated

Verse 1
Far, far beyond the island
We dwelt in shades of twilight
Through dread and weary days
Through grief and endless pain
Verse 2
It lies unknown
The land of mine
A augmentedA hidden gate
to save us from the shadow fall
Verse 3
The lord of water spoke
In the silence
Words of wisdom
I've seen the end of all
Be aware the storm gets closer
Chorus 1
Mirror, mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind,
can't you see that the winds will change
Mirror, mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind,
can't you see that tomorrow bears insanity
Verse 4
Gone's the wisdom of thousand years
A augmentedA world in fire and chains and fear
Leads me to a place so far
Deep down it lies, my secret vision
I better keep it safe
Verse 5
Shall I leave my frieds alone
Hidden in my twilight hall
(I) know the world is lost in fire
Sure there is no way to turn it back
to the old days
Verse 6
Of bliss and cheerful laughter
We're lost in barren lands
Caught in the running flames
Alone
Verse 7
How shall we leave the lost road
Time's getting short, so follow me
A augmentedA leaders task so clearly
To find the path out of the dark
Chorus 2
Mirror, mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind,
can't you see that the winds will change
Mirror, mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind,
can't you see that the winds will change
Verse 8
Even though the storm calmed down
The bitter end
It's just a matter of time
Verse 9
Shall we dare the dragon
Mercyless he's poisening our hearts
...our hearts
Verse 10
How shall we leave the lost road
Time's getting short, so follow me
A augmentedA leaders task so clearly
To find the path out of the dark
Chorus 3
Mirror, mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind,
can't you see that the winds will change
Mirror, mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind,
