Gil-galad was an Elven-king.
Em C G D
Of him the harpers sadly sing;
Em D C Em
The last whose realm was fair and free
C D Bm Em
Between the Mountains and the Sea.
[Verse 2]
Em C G D
His sword was long, his lance was keen.
G C G D
His shining helm afar was seen;
Em C D Em
The countless stars of heaven's field
G C Em D
Were mirrored in his silver shield.
[Verse 3]
Em C Em
But long ago he rode away,
G C Am D
And where he dwelleth none can say;
Em D C Em
For into darkness fell his star
Am D Bm Em
In Mordor where the shadows are.
