Empires On Fire

[Intro] D  F#m  E  Bm

                   D
Like a city overthrown
                               F#m
We're turning buildings into stone
                            E
We leave the bodies to the crows
                 Bm
On a funeral of fire

                          D
Now we're choking on the fumes
                            F#m
Spread the lie and kill the truth
                             E
They're in the ashes of the proof
                          Bm
We watch the flames rise higher

    D
Our empire
      F#m
Is on fire
    E
Our empire
      Bm
Is on fire
                D    F#m  E  Bm
Our empire's on fire
                D
Our empire's on fire

Now we're falling through the ice
                               F#m
We made our bed and rolled the dice
                        E
Well every gamble has a price
                           Bm
We watched the cracks grow wider

                             D
Waves are climbing past your knees
                            F#m
It's just the coming of the seas
                           E
It's getting harder now to breathe
                          Bm
We watched the tides rise higher

    D
Our empire
      F#m
Is on fire
    E
Our empire
      Bm
Is on fire
                D    F#m  E  Bm
Our empire's on fire

         D
I said I know you know we feel it in
 our bones
         F#m
I said I know you know we feel it in
 our bones
         E
I said I know you know we feel it in
 our bones
         Bm
I said I know, woah oh oh!
         D
I said I know you know we feel it in
 our bones
         F#m
I said I know you know we feel it in
 our bones
         E
I said I know you know we feel it in
 our bones
         Bm
I said I know, woah oh oh!
