Intro: C  F  x2
           C              F          Am              G 
There were days when each hour was a war I fought to survive
           C              F                G                  F
There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded closing my eyes
           C                F           Am                   G
There were skies that burst open with a downpour to drown me alive
        C                         F                         G        
But the world took a spark like a match in the dark and the fire brought me 
   F
to life
       C                     G                    C                     
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'cause there's no other way we
    G     F
can stay alive

             C       G            Am    F
'Cause we're burning bright as we all unite
              C                       G                     Am           
And when it's all said and done we'll shine like the sun so don't let the
     F
fire die
          C         G         Am         F
And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light
               C                   G                Am                 F
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die

           C                 F                 Am                   G
And you'll find, there'll be mornings when the ashes and embers are cold
           C            F                  G                     F
But you'll fight with a passion and you'll never stop 'cause you know
         C            F               Am                 G
Yeah you know it gets better and your story is yet to be told
      C                        F          
Every push, every shove, every war, every love
         G                      F
Yeah the coals are beginning to glow

       C                           G                      C    
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'cause there's no other way we
    G    F
can stay alive
             C       G            Am  F
'Cause we're burning bright as we all unite
              C                       G                     Am 
And when it's all said and done we'll shine like the sun so don't let the
     F
fire die
          C         G         Am         F
And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light
               C                  G                 Am                 F
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die

   C  G                      F  G
      Don't let the fire die
              C      
      It gets better
           G                  F    G
      Just don't let the fire die, no...

   C   G   Am   F

             C       G            Am  F 
'Cause we're burning bright as we all unite
              C                       G                     Am 
And when it's all said and done we'll shine like the sun so don't let the
     F
fire die
          C         G         Am         F 
And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light
               C                   G                Am                 F
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die
               C                   G                Am                 F
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die

Don't let the fire die...
