Am
Far over the misty mountains cold
Am          C                Am
To dungeons deep and caverns old
C       G7                Am
We must away ere break of day
Am          C              Am
To seek the pale enchanted gold.

Am
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
Am          C                Am
While hammers fell like ringing bells
C       G7                Am
In places deep, where dark things sleep,
Am          C              Am
In hollow halls beneath the fells.

Am
For ancient king and elvish lord
Am          C                 Am
There many a gleaming golden hoard
C       G7                Am
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
Am          C              Am
To hide in gems on hilt of sword.

Am
On silver necklaces they strung
Am          C                Am
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
C       G7                Am
The dragon-fire, in twisted wire
Am          C              Am
They meshed the light of moon and sun.

Am
Far over the misty mountains cold.
Am          C                Am
To dungeons deep and caverns old
C       G7                Am
We must away, ere break of day,
Am          C              Am
To claim our long-forgotten gold.

Am
Goblets they carved there for themselves
Am          C                Am
And harps of gold; where no man delves
C       G7                Am
There lay they long, and many a song
Am          C              Am
Was sung unheard by men or elves.

Am
The pines were roaring on the height,
Am          C                Am
The winds were moaning in the night.
C       G7                Am
The fire was red, it flAmng spread;
Am          C              Am
The trees like torches blazed with light.

Am
The bells were ringing in the dale
Am          C                Am
And men they looked up with faces pale;
C       G7                Am
The dragon's ire more fierce than fire
Am          C              Am
Laid low their towers and houses frail.

Am
The mountain smoked beneath the moon;
Am          C                Am
The dwarves they heard the tramp of doom.
C       G7                Am
They fled their hall to dying fall
Am          C              Am
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.

Song of Durin:
 Am             G                   Am
The world was young, the mountains green,
   Am         G               Am
No stain yet on the Moon was seen,
   Am          G                 C
No words were laid on stream or stone
     F/Fmaj G               Am
When Durin woke and walked alone.

    Am                G           C
He named the nameless hills and dells;
    Am         C    F/Fmaj G
He drank from yet untasted wells;
    Am          C        F/Fmaj   C
He stooped and looked in Mirrormere,
    F/Fmaj C       F/Fmaj  G
And saw a crown of stars appear,
    Am         G      Am
As gems upon a silver thread,
Am         G             Am
Above the shadows of his head.

     Am      G                   Am
The world is grey, the mountains old,
    Am      G              Am
The forge's fire is ashen-cold;
   Am          G            C
No harp is wrung, no hammer falls:
   F/Fmaj    G                 Am
The darkness dwells in Durin's halls;

    Am           G       C
The shadow lies upon his tomb
  Am         C      G
In Moria, in Khazad-dûm.
    Am        C      F/Fmaj C
But still the sunken stars appear
    F/Fmaj C         F/Fmaj  G
In dark and windless Mirrormere;
      Am         G            Am
There lies his crown in water deep,
      Am   G                Am
Till Durin wakes again from sleep.

Part 2:
Am
Far over the misty mountains grim
Am         C                Am
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
C       G7                Am
We must away, ere break of day,
Am         C              Am
To win our harps and gold from him!

Am
The wind was on the withered heath,
Am          C                Am
But in the forest stirred no leaf:
C       G7                Am
There shadows lay by night and day,
Am          C              Am
And dark things silent crept beneath.

Am
The wind came down from mountains cold,
Am          C                Am
And like a tide it roared and rolled.
C       G7                Am
The branches groaned, the forest moaned,
Am          C              Am
And leaves were laid upon the mould.

Am
The wind went on from West to East;
Am          C                Am
All movement in the forest ceased.
C       G7                Am
But shrill and harsh across the marsh
Am          C              Am
Its whistling voices were released.

Am
The grasses hissed, their tassels bent,
Am          C                Am
The reeds were rattling, on it went.
C       G7                Am
O'er shaken pool under heavens cool,
Am          C              Am
Where racing clouds were torn and rent.

Am
It passed the Lonely Mountain bare,
Am          C                Am
And swept above the dragon's lair:
C       G7                Am
There black and dark lay boulders stark,
Am          C              Am
And flying smoke was in the air.

Am
It left the world and took its flight
Am          C                Am
Over the wide seas of the night.
C       G7                Am
The moon set sail upon the gale,
Am          C              Am
And stars were fanned to leaping light.

Am
Under the Mountain dark and tall
Am          C                Am
The King has come unto his hall!
C       G7                Am
His foe is dead, the Worm of Dread,
Am          C              Am
And ever so his foes shall fall!

Am
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
Am          C                Am
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong;
C       G7                Am
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
Am          C              Am
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

Am
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
Am          C                Am
While hammers fell like ringing bells
C       G7                Am
In places deep, where dark things sleep,
Am          C              Am
In hollow halls beneath the fells.

Am
On silver necklaces they strung
Am          C                Am
The light of stars, on crowns they hung
C       G7                Am
The dragon-fire, from twisted wire
Am          C              Am
The melody of harps they wrung.

Am
The mountain throne once more is freed!
Am          C                Am
O! Wandering folk, the summons heed!
C       G7                Am
Come haste! Come haste! Across the waste!
Am          C              Am
The king of friend and kin has need.

Am
Now we call over the mountains cold,
Am          C                Am
'Come back unto the caverns old!'
C       G7                Am
Here at the Gates the king awaits,
Am          C              Am
His hands are rich with gems and gold.

Am
The king has come unto his hall
Am          C                Am
Under the Mountain dark and tall.
C       G7                Am
The Worm of Dread is slain and dead,
Am          C              Am
And ever so our foes shall fall!

Am
Farewell we call to hearth and hall,
Am          C                Am
Though wind may blow and rain may fall,
C       G7                Am
We must away, ere break of day
Am          C              Am
Far over the wood and mountain tall.

Am
To Rivendell, where Elves yet dwell
Am          C                Am
In glades beneath the misty fell.
C       G7                Am
Through moor and waste we ride in haste
Am          C              Am
And whither then we cannot tell.

Am
With foes ahead, behind us dread,
Am          C                Am
Beneath the sky shall be our bed,
C       G7                Am
Until at last our toil be passed,
Am          C              Am
Our journey done, our errand sped.


We must away!  We must away!
We ride before the break of day!
