[E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ The world was young, the mountains [B] green, No stain yet on the moon was seen,
[C] No words were laid on stream or [Am] stone, When Durin woke and walked _ [E]
alone.
_ _ _ He named the nameless hills and [D] dells, He drank from yet [Bm] untasted wells,
[C] He stooped and looked in mirror [Am] mere, And saw a crown of stars appear,
As gems upon a silver thread, Above the shadow of his [E] _
head.
_ _ The world was fair, the mountains tall, [Bm] In elder days before the fall [C] of mighty kings,
In Argothrond [A] and Gondolin, Who now beyond [C] the western seas have passed away,
[A] The world was fair in [E] Durin's day.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] A king he was on carbon throne, In many pillared halls of stone,
With golden [Am] roof and silver floor, [E] And runes of power upon the door,
The light of sun and star and [Em] moon, [Bm] In shining [D] lamps of crystal hewn,
[C] Undimmed by cloud or [Am] shade of night, [E] There shone forever [F#] fair and bright. _ _ _ _

There hammer on the anvil smote, There chiseled clove and graver wrote,
[C] There forged was blade and bound was hilt, [A] The dell, the mine, the mason built,
[E] There beryl, pearl and opal pale, [D] And metal rods like fishes' mail,
[C]
Buckler and corslet, axe and sword, [F#] And shining spears were laid in _ hoard.
[E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em]
Unwearied then were Durin's folk, [D]
Beneath the mountains music woke,
[C] The harp his heart, the minstrel sang, [A] And at the gates the trumpets [Em] rang. _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _
Spray the mountains o'er, [D] The forge is fire, is ash and coal,
[C] No harp is rung, no hammer falls, [E] The darkness dwells in Durin's halls,
The shadow lies upon his tomb, [E] In Moriah, in Cazadu,
But still the sunken stars appear, In dark and windless Miramere,
[C] Their lies his crown in water deep, [D] So Durin wakes [E] again from [Em] sleep.
