Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Verse 1]

  Dm                    Am
A king he was on carven throne
        C          Am     C
In many-pillared halls of stone
     Am     C        Am     C
With golden roof and silver floor,
    Am       Dm    Am       Dm
And runes of power upon the door.
    Dm                        Am
The light of sun and star and moon
           C        Am      C
In shining lamps of crystal hewn
Dm                            Am
Undimmed by cloud or shade of night
      Am        C    Am       Dm
There shone for ever fair and bright.

[Verse 2]

Dm                               Am
The world is gray, the mountains old
            C        Am    C
The forge's fire, is ashen cold
   Am      C         Am     C
No harp is wrung, no hammer falls
    Am       Dm        Am      Dm
The darkness dwells in Durin's halls
    Dm                   Am
The shadow lies upon his tomb
       C     Am     C
In Moria, in Khazad-dûm
              Dm           Am
But still the sunken stars appear
   Am       C        Am    Dm
In dark and windless Mirrormere

[Outro]

Dm                            Am
There lies his crown in water deep
     Am    C      Am        Dm
Till Durin wakes again from sleep
