Verse chords: Dm Bb G
Chorus: F Dm Bb C
Verse 1:
DmThis city's sleeping like a soldier trapped inside of an Bbiron lung
MacDmhines can keep you breathing but what happens when you find a new Bbworld's begun
Dm Flip the switch and turn it off, you won't be able to Bbbreathe
So either way you're a cGasualty
Verse 2:
DmI've got this burning like my veins are filled with nothing but Bbgasoline
DmAnd with this spark, it's gonna be the biggest fire they've Bbever seen
DmComin' down, you'll never run, either way it's all gonna Bbburn
The only way that they'll Gever learn
Gotta turn it off?Dm Flip a switch
Chorus:
Light up the Fnight
There is a Dmcity that this darkness can't hide
There are the emBbbers of the fires gone out F
But I can still feel the hBbeat on my skin
And this mFess that we're in
But you and IBb
CMaybe you and IBb
CWe can still make it rBbight
Maybe we can brinCg back the lighDmt
Verse 3:
At the heart of the city there is a building that looks down out on all there is
And the man in the tower controls it all without raising a single fist
It's like they gathered up the City, sold it to the devil, and now
It's gone to hell and they wonder how
Verse 4:
We were men who would follow any man who would turn the wheels
Now the wheels are spinnin' out of control, what would they do if we held them still?
If you destroy the working parts what you get is a broken machine
A beacon of light from a burning scream
(Emily!)
Chorus:
Light up the night
There is a city that this darkness can't hide
There are the embers of the fires gone out
But I can still feel the heat on my skin
And this mess we're in
But you and I
Maybe you and I
We can light up the night.
But we can light up the night!
There is a city that this darkness can't hide
There are the embers of the fires gone out
But I can still feel the heat on my skin
And this mess we're in
But you and I
Maybe you and I
We can light up the night!
There is a city that this darkness can't hide
There is a fire that will burn through the streets of the city
And we will stand in the light, we will stand in the light
You and I – maybe you and I –
We can bring back the light!
There is a city that this darkness can't hide
There is a fire that will burn through the streets of the city
And we will stand in the light, we will stand in the light
You and I
You and I
We'll bring back the light
