Rise Like A Phoenix

	  		
verse 1 

Dm 
Waking in the rubble 
F 
Walking over glass 
A# 
Neighbours say we're trouble 
A 
Well that time has passed 
Dm 
Fearing from the mirror 
F 
No, that isn't me 
A# 
A stranger getting nearer 
A 
Who can this person be? 
Gm           Dm             A 
You wouldn't know me at all today 
A 
From the fading light I fly 

 


Gm 
Rise like a phoenix 
A# 
Out of the ashes 
        Dm 
Seeking rather than vengeance 
F                     A# 
Retribution, you were warned 
              A                  F 
Once I'm transformed, once I'm reborn 
                Gm 
You know I will rise like a phoenix 
A#             A 
But you're my flame 


verse 2 

Dm 
Go about your business 
F 
Act as if you're free 
A# 
No one could have witnessed 
A 
What you did to me 
Gm                  Dm 
'Cause you wouldn't know me today 
D#  D#/D            Cm  Cm/A#   A 
And you have got to see      to believe 
A 
From the fading light I fly 


Gm          Gm/A 
Rise like a phoenix 
A# 
Out of the ashes 
        Dm 
Seeking rather than vengeance 
F                     A# 
Retribution, you were warned 
              A                  D 
Once I'm transformed, once I'm reborn

Dm/F             A# 
I rise up to the sky 
A 
You threw me down but I'm gonna fly

Rise like a phoenix 
A# 
Out of the ashes 
        Dm 
Seeking rather than vengeance 
F                     A# 
Retribution, you were warned 
              A                  F 
Once I'm transformed, once I'm reborn 
                Gm 
You know I will rise like a phoenix
