[Verse 1]

Am          G
Now you all know,
    Em7             Am
The bards and their songs.
     Am              G
When hours have gone by,
Em7           Am
I'll close my eyes.
     Am         G
In a world far away,
   Em7       Am
We may meet again.
    Am          G
But now hear my song,
          Em7         Dm
About the dawn of the night.
      C    G   Am     G    C  G  Am  G
Let's sing the bard's song.



[Chorus]

  Dm Am       Dm       Am
Tomorrow will take us away,
Dm       Am
Far from home,
Dm          F    G        Dm
No one will ever know our names,
        F            G     (Dm)
But the bard's songs will remain.
  Dm Am       Dm       Am
Tomorrow will take it away,
    Dm        Am
The fear of today,
Dm         Fm
It will be gone,
    Am           Asus2
Due to our magic songs.

[Verse 2]

        Am       G
There's only one song,
Em7        Am
Left in my mind.
Am         G
Tales of a brave man,
    Em7            Am
Who lived far from here.
        Am             G
Now the bard songs are over,
    Em7          Am
And it's time to leave.
Am            G               Em7         Dm
No one should ask you for the name of the one,
    C     G   Am G
Who tells the story.


[Chorus]

  Dm Am       Dm       Am
Tomorrow will take us away,
Dm       Am
Far from home,
Dm          F    G        Dm
No one will ever know our names,
        F            G     (Dm)
But the bard's songs will remain.
  Dm Am  Dm          Am
Tomorrow all will be known,
    Dm          Am
And you're not alone,
   Dm        F
So don't be afraid,
       G        Dm
In the dark and cold,
           F            G      C G Am
'Cause the bard's songs will remaaaaaain,
     C   G      Am
They all will remain.


[Outro]

C     G            Am
In my thoughts and in my dreams,
        C      G     Am
They're always in my mind,
      C        G        Am
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men,
    C
And elves,
     G          Am
Come close your eyes.
        C   G     Em7
You can see them, too.
