[Verse 1]
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
Where did we go wrong?
Fmaj9 G Am Am7
Will there be a future to look back from?
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
It feels like God is long gone
Fmaj9 G Am7
From the creatures who created Him
[Verse 2]
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
We could give it all away
Fmaj9 G Am Am7
This machinery of violence
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
Still, we gather for a feast of praise
Fmaj9 G Am7 (fig 2)
To the devouring mouth of war
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Am7 G
This is a fire, this is a revelation
Fmaj7 Fmaj9 (fig 2)
Don't let it burn out, don't let it fade away
Am Am7 G
Let's run all the red lights, make no promises
Fmaj7 G Am Am7 (fig 1)
Live like young lovers who've never known heartache
[Verse 3]
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
Between the dark and dawn
Fmaj9 G Am Am7
Kings are killin' people in the streets
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
Their ghosts are left to walk on
Fmaj9 G Am7
Through the nightmares of these bitter men
[Verse 4]
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
Golden towers climb towards the sky
Fmaj9 G Am7
A sparklin' palace of sin (palace of sin)
Am7 G Fmaj7 Fmaj9
And still, we act so surprised
Fmaj7 G Am Am7 (fig 2)
That we are so hollow
[Chorus]
Am Am7 G
This is a fire, this is a revelation
Fmaj7 Fmaj9 (fig 2)
Don't let it burn out, don't let it fade away
Am7 Am7 G
Let's run all the red lights, make no promises
Fmaj7 G2
Live like young lovers who've never known heartache
F
Known heartache
[Bridge]
G2
Standin' on your own
F
While you struggle to survive
G2
Left you standin' all alone
F
While you struggle to survive
[Solo]
Am7 (fig 2) Fmaj7 (fig 2)
[Final Chorus]
Am7 (fig 2) Fmaj7 (fig 2)
This is a fire, this is a revelation
Am7 (fig 2) Fmaj7
Don't let it burn out, don't let it fade away
G Fmaj7
Fade away
Fmaj7
Fade away
Fmaj7 G Am7
Ooh, ooh
