You know the song Gollum is singing when Frodo is trying to talk with him? Does anyone know the complete song?

Do you mean this one? Cold be heart and hand and bone, And cold be travellers far from home. They do not see what lies ahead, When Sun has failed and Moon is dead. This is the version that the barrow-wight sings in the barrow: Cold be hand and heart and bone, And cold be sleep under stone: Never more to wake on stony bed, Never, till the Sun fails and the Moon is dead. In the black wind the stars shall die, And still on gold here let them lie, Till the dark lord lifts his hand Over dead sea and withered land.

That verse gives me the shivers!
I really like the way they used it in the movie. The verse seems to go with Gollum's raspy, slightly high-pitched voice voice perfectly. I imagine the barrow-wight sounding very similar.
"And cold be sleep under stone" This line confuses me a little. Weren't the hobbits laid out on the stone? In what sense were they under it?
