F#m You called my name in the dark Called me back to the start D B F#m The condensation is building tension Stubborn silence is formed Around our bodies it's warm The cool wet grasses as summer passes Frightened under attack Fallen flat on my back Arms and legs, I'm too scared to beg Harm me most when it's light Thought of you don't sit right I need the darkness a death grip embrace Razing cities to dust Faces dripping in lust Fallen empires and raging bush fires All your words unfounded Secret lives bound in bed Living backwards and tangled back words Ruined everything right So good can't see the light From my cave I can see the wave Fallen empires and raging bush fires F#m We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light F#m We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light D We are the light, we are the light B We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire) You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsD  F#m  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
