Tom: A
A D E F#m A D E A
[Verse 1]
A
A fire burns in you alone
D
You set ablaze your very soul
E Bm E
You breathe as if the air’s the only thing that feeds the flame
A
The blood and sweat you sacrifice
D
To high desire will suffice
E A
A cry that’s loud enough to shake the sky
[Pre-chorus]
D A E A A D A E A A
Oh, let there be light
D A/C#
Prayers given to the future will give back a sign to you
[Chorus]
D
Oh, let there be light
E F#m9 A
Go forth, and bend the darkness to your runway
D E D A
And beat a shining path you forge yourself and never stray
D
Oh, let there be light
E F#m9 A
You’re running blind with shadows inches ahead
D E A
Believe in glory that comes with every step
E
Oh, let there be light
D E F#m A
The reason that your feet are beating into the ground
D E F#m
You need to leap when you can fly, your sky is starbound
D
Oh, let there be light
E F#m9 A
The constellations you scatter today
D E A E
Will lead your friends down your path and light their way tomorrow
D A E A A D A E A A
[Bridge]
D
Dreams are burdens
You will learn this
A/C# D E
Every wish you break is yours to take to Eden
D E F#m A D E F#m D E F#m A D E F#m
A D E F#m A D E A
[Verse 2]
A
There’s walls that block the way you seek
D
With creatures crouching at their peak
E F#m E
Their piercing eyes will feast upon the fear you fight inside
A
The only chance you have to take
D
Of breaking through with all your strength
E A
A cry that’s loud enough to shake the sky
[Alt Chorus]
D
Oh, let there be light
E F#m A
You’ll bless the days you face your innermost fight
D E F#m A
Your shadow’s racing, keeping pace with every single stride
D E F#m A
Even when your stars go out, and leave you falling into the night
D E A A A
Your inner fire ignites a shining light
[Chorus]
D
So let there be light
E F#m9 A
Go forth, and bend the darkness to your runway
D E D A
And beat a shining path you forge yourself and never stray
D
Oh, let there be light
E F#m9 A
You’re running blind with shadows inches ahead
D E A
Believe in glory that comes with every step
E
Oh, let there be light
D E F#m9 A
Your shooting star you follow in the heavens tonight
D E F#m
Burns brighter as your fire takes you to the sky
D
Oh, let there be light
E F#m9 A
The constellations you scatter today
D E A
Will lead your friends down your path and light their way tomorrow
D A E A A D A E A A
[Outro]
D
Prayers given to the future
A/C#
Will give back a sign to you
And when they do
D
Dreams are burdens
You will learn this
A/C# D
Every wish you break is yours to take to Eden
E A
Oh, let there be light!
