Em
Through ceaseless time
      G
Great nations fall
  D
Immortal shadows
     C
Sacrifice the sprawl
  Em
A man will come
   G
To start a fire
     D
Your shining city
       C
Will become your pyre

[Chorus]
Em
Rise from the shadows
       G
Make a fist of the pain
D
Rise from your grief
          C
Before it grows into your bane
Em
Climb from the prison
            G
That you've built in your soul
         D
When the night has arisen
          C
Then your legend will be whole

[Instrumental]
Em C Eb  (x2)

[Verse]
     Em
Your kings of commerce
     G
Your crowns of greed
     D
Will not protect you
         C
When the slaves are freed
     Em
Your body broken
     G
Your spirit numb
D
Weak and waiting
        C
For the end to come

[Chorus]
Em
Rise from the shadows
       G
Make a fist of the pain
D
Rise from your grief
          C
Before it grows into your bane
Em
Climb from the prison
            G
That you've built in your soul
         D
When the night has arisen
          C
Then your legend will be whole

(I'll start)

Will start a fire          (a fire, watch it)

Watch it rise
        (rise through your)
             Bb
Through your city             (city)

[Chorus]
Em
Rise from the agony
     G
That pierces your mind
D
Rise from the stigmas
    C
Of enigmas you've designed
Em
Rise from the chaos
     G
Of a world turned to ash
    D
The faces of anarchy
    C
Are waiting for the crash

[Chorus]
Em
Rise from the shadows
       G
Make a fist of the pain
D
Rise from your grief
          C
Before it grows into your bane
Em
Climb from the prison
            G
That you've built in your soul
         D
When the night has arisen
          C
Then your legend will be whole
