I See Fire

Ed Sheeran


Capo: 6th fret



Oh, misty eye of the mountain below

Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls

And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke

                           Em65432123

Keep watching over Durin's sons

[Verse 1]

              Em65432123    G654321213

If this is to end in fire

               D654321132       C654321321

Then we should all burn together

          Em65432123          G654321213   D654321132       Am765432121

Watch the flames climb high into the night

        Em65432123   G654321213        D654321132           C654321321

Calling out father, oh, stand by and we will

          Am765432121        Bm654321111342           C654321321

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

                 Em65432123   G654321213

And if we should die tonight

               D654321132      C654321321

Then we should all die together

        Em65432123      G654321213  D654321132       Am765432121

Raise a glass of wine for the last time

        Em65432123   G654321213        D654321132         C654321321

Calling out father, oh, prepare as we will

          Am765432121        Bm654321111342           C654321321

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

    Am765432121   Bm654321111342            C654321321

Desolation comes upon the sky



[Chorus]

          Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132         Em65432123

Now I see fire,  inside the mountain

      Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132          Em65432123

I see fire,  burning the trees

          Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132        Em65432123

And I see fire,  hollowing souls

      Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132           Am765432121

I see fire,  blood in the breeze



And I hope that you'll remember me

[Verse 2]

              Em65432123    G654321213

Oh, should my people fall

            D654321132          C654321321

Then surely I'll do the same

            Em65432123      G654321213

Confined in mountain halls

           D654321132           Am765432121

We got too close to the flame

        Em65432123    G654321213       D654321132            C654321321

Calling out father, oh, hold fast and we will

          Am765432121        Bm654321111342           C654321321

Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side

    Am765432121   Bm654321111342            C654321321

Desolation comes upon the sky



[Chorus]

          Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132         Em65432123

Now I see fire,  inside the mountain

      Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132          Em65432123

I see fire,  burning the trees

          Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132        Em65432123

      Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132           Am765432121

I see fire,  blood in the breeze

                                Am765432121

And I hope that you'll remember me



[Bridge]

           Am765432121     Em65432123

And if the night is burning

       D654321132       C654321321

I will cover my eyes

           Am765432121   Em65432123

For if the dark returns then

   D             CMaj7

My brothers will die

           Am765432121           Em65432123

And as the sky is falling down

           D654321132               C654321321

It crashed into this lonely town

              Am765432121

And with that shadow upon the ground

          C654321321                   D654321132

I hear my people screaming out



[Chorus/Outro]

          Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132         Em65432123

Now I see fire,  inside the mountain

      Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132          Em65432123

I see fire,  burning the trees

          Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132        Em65432123

And I see fire,  hollowing souls

      Em65432123 C654321321 D654321132           Em65432123

I see fire,  blood in the breeze

      Em65432123          C654321321                D654321132       Em65432123

I see fire, oh you know I saw a city burning (fire)

      Em65432123        C654321321               D654321132    Em65432123

I see fire, feel the heat upon my skin (fire)

          Em65432123  C654321321      D654321132 Em65432123

And I see fire, oooooo (fire)

          Em65432123       C654321321            D654321132       Em65432123

And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side
