[Intro]
Em
 
[Chorus 1]
Am
Frodo of the nine fingers
Em
And the Ring of Doom!
 
[Spoken section]
Am
It has its beginnings two Ages past,
Em
When Bilbo set forth to reclaim the Dwarves' Gold
                Bm
From the dragon Smaug.
Em
And, while on his quest,
                      C                 Em     C
Bilbo stumbled into a deep, dank cave.
 
[Verse 1]
     G                Em
When Bilbo found that shiny ring
   G                C
In Gollum's cave of gloom,
   G                  Am
He never thought that it would turn
  Bm   C       D
Into a Ring of Doom.
    G                 Em
The dragon Smaug, the spiders, too,
    G                  C
The goblins, the Elven-king.
     G                Am
They came to know the power of
    Bm             Em     G   Am   Bm   Em
The Hobbit and his Ring.
 
[Chorus 2]
Am
Frodo of the nine fingers
Em
And the Ring of Doom!
   Am             Em
It started with a hobbit
   Bm               Em      C
In Gollum's cave of gloom.
 
[Verse 2]
    G            Em
The power of the Ring, it grew,
    G               C
And Gandalf sat, in thought.
   G                    Am
He knew that it must be destroyed
   Bm          C      D
In fires where it was wrought.
     G          Em
For, if in evil hands it fell,
    G                    C
The Earth would know its end.
   G                   Am
No force of arms would win the day,
   Bm              Em
No armies could contend.
 
[Chorus 3]
Am
Frodo of the nine fingers
Em
And the Ring of Doom!
   Am            Em
Accepted a heavy burden
        Bm       Em
For the fires to consume
 
[Chorus 4]
Am
Frodo of the nine fingers
Em
And the Ring of Doom!
    Am                Em
Why does he have nine fingers?
      Bm             Em
Where is the Ring of Doom?
