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!
