D Like a city overthrown F#m We're turning buildings into stone E We leave the bodies to the crows Bm On a funeral of fire
D Now we're choking on the fumes F#m Spread the lie and kill the truth E They're in the ashes of the proof Bm We watch the flames rise higher
[Chorus]
D Our empire F#m Is on fire E Our empire Bm Is on fire DF#mEBm Our empire's on fire DF#mEBmD Our empire is on fire
[Verse 2] D Now we're falling through the ice F#m We made our bed and rolled the dice E Well every gamble has a price Bm We watched the cracks grow wider
D Waves are climbing past your knees F#m It's just the coming of the seas E It's getting harder now to breathe Bm We watched the tides rise higher
[Chorus] D Our empire F#m Is on fire E Our empire Bm Is on fire DF#mEBm Our empire's on fire DF#mEBm Our empire is on fire
[Bridge]
D I said I know you know we feel it in our bones F#m I said I know you know we feel it in our bones E I said I know you know we feel it in our bones Bm I said I know, woah oh oh!
DF#mEBm
[Chorus]
D Our empire F#m Is on fire E Our Bm Is on fire DF#mEBm Our empire's on fire DF#mEBmD Our empire is on fire
