Tom: A
A
A fire burns in you alone
D
You set ablaze your very soul
E D 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
D A
“Oh let there be light!”
D E D
Prayers given to the future will give back a sign to you
[Chorus]
E D
Oh let there be light
E F#m A
Go forth, and bend the darkness to your runway
D E F#m A
And beat a shining path you forge yourself and never stray
D
Oh let there be light
E F#m A
You’re running blind with shadows inches ahead
D E A
Believe in glory that comes with every step
(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!
A D
Oh let there be light
E F#m A
The constellations you scatter today
D E A E D
Will lead your friends down your path and light their way, tomorrow!
D E
Dreams are burdens you will learn this
D E
Every wish you break is yours to take to Eden
[Verse 2]
A
There’s walls that block the way you seek,
D
With creatures crouching at their peak
E D 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
[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
Your shadow’s racing, keeping pace with every single stride
A D E F#m A
Even if the stars go out, and leave you falling into the night
D E A
Your inner fire ignites a shining light!
D
So let there be light
E F#m A
Go forth, and bend the darkness to your runway
D E F#m A
And beat a shining path you forge yourself and never stray
D
Oh let there be light
E F#m A
You’re running blind with shadows inches ahead
D E A
Believe in glory that comes with every step
(Oh let there be light!)
D E F#m A
Your shooting star you follow in the heavens tonight
D E F#m
Burns brighter as your fire takes you to the sky
A D
Oh let there be light
E F#m A
The constellations you scatter today
D E F#m A
Will lead your friends down your path and light their way, tomorrow!
D E D
Prayers given to the future will give back a sign to you
E
(And when they do)
D E
Dreams are burdens you will learn this
D E
Every wish you break is yours to take to Eden
E A
Oh let there be light!
