[Verse 1]
D#m
When you wake up in the fire
C#/F F#
And your harbor lies in ruins
G#m D#m
You wonder why the giant has been shot
C#sus4 C#
Fired off down from the sky
[Verse 2]
D#m
You plead for explanation
C#/F F#
Is it accident or rule
G#m D#m
And where is your childhood hero
C#sus4 C#
To drive all the demons away
[Pre-Chorus]
F# A#m
What if the light
D#m
Shines in darkness my friend
B C# F#
And darkness just can't comprehend
A#m B
So blaze the trail on your own
C#
Go it alone
[Chorus]
F#m D A E
We are falling - falling to rise
F#m E Bm7
Pain is the guide out of the wastelands

We don't need a hero

No charlatan to show you the light

We don't need a hero

[Verse 3]
D#m
Indignity is the leader
C#/F F#
To escort us to the fen
G#m D#m
Where they say the light is endemic
C#sus4 C#
If only I could comprehend
[Verse 4]
D#m
Now you're old enough to face it
C#/F F#
Rabble's stones give pain
G#m D#m
Hit you as they watch your tracks
C#sus4 C#
Apart from the way that they understand
[Pre-Chorus]
F# A#m
What if the light
D#m
Shines in darkness my friend
B C# F#
And darkness just can't comprehend
A#m B
So blaze the trail on your own
C#
Go it alone
