Verse 2

E|------------------|

B|------------------| Finally I've found myself

G|-----------8~-7---| In these lands

D|-5--------------8-| Horror and madness I'v seen here

A|-3-6-3--6---------| For what I became a king of the lost?

e|--------4---------| Barren and lifeless the land lies

Now, when ended Verse 2, play intro riff again, however,

also add Part 2 in the beginning.

Now there's this synt bridge coming, wich I've also transcribed.

Bridge

Lord of all Noldor

A star in the night

And a bearer of hope

He rides into his glorious battle alone

Farewell to the valiant warlord

D|-------------13-----------------------13----------|

A|--------------------------------------------------|

e|--------------------------------------------------|

Chorus 4x

The Fate of us all

Lies deep in the dark

When time stands still at the iron hill

It was EXTREMLY hard to figure out the chorus, and I don't think it's

really right, but anyway, it sounds pretty nice.

The Fate of us all... Lies deep in the Dark...

A|----5----5----5----3-3-3----3-----3-----3--1-1-1-|

e|----3----3----3-------------1-----1-----1--------|

Keep on playing that riff throught the whole chorus, the timing is,

well, worthless. Actually, I don't think the fast A# and C powerchords

really should be there. I just thought it sounded well, without them

the chorus would be too dull on guitar.

Slowly in fear

The dark lord appears

Welcome to my lands

The iron crowned

Is getting closer

Swings his hammer

Down on him

Like a thunderstorm

He's crushing

Down on Noldor's

Proudest king
