P.M{_______________} 
                       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

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.

Verse 4 4x

  Proudly the high lord 
  Challenges doom 
  Lord of slaves he cries

Verse 5 4x

Verse 6 2x 
 
  The iron crowned 
  Is getting closer 
  Swings his hammer 
  Down on him 
  Like a thunderstorm 
  He's crushing 
  Down on Noldor's 
  Proudest king 
                      End 1                  End 2
