    Gm                       Gm
     (g) (bb)(c-d-c-bb) (a)  (g)
Far over the misty mountains cold
             Am              Gm
             (a) (bb-c-bb-a) (g)
To dungeons deep and caverns old
        Dm                Am
(bb-c)  (a-d) (bb-c)   (g-a)
We must away ere break of day
                          Gm
(f) (f) (g) (a)   (bb-a-f) (g)
To seek the pale enchanted gold

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

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

On silver necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon fire, in twisted wire
Tehy meshed the light of moon and sun

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

The pines were roaring on the height
The winds were moaning in the night
The fire was red, it flaming spread
The trees like torches blazed with light

The bells were ringingin the dale
And men looked up with faces pale
The dragon's ire, more fierce than fire
Laid low the towers and houses frail

The mountains smoked beneath the moon
The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom
They fled their hall, to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.

Far over the misty mountains grim
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
We must away ere break of day
To win our harps and gold from him
