Am                   G                    Am 
Far over the misty mountains cold. 
Am                   G                     Am 
To dungeons deep, and caverns old. 
Am                                G         Am 
The pines were roaring on the height. 
Am                                  G       Em 
The winds were moaning in the night. 
                    Am                  G      
The fire was red, it flaming spread. 
                      Am       Em              Am   
The trees like torches blazed with light.
