Owl City - Embers: chords

            C              F          C
There were days when each hour was a war
                F
I fought to survive
            C              F                  C
There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded
            F
closing my eyes
            Am                           G
There were skies that burst open with a downpour
to drown me alive
         Am                        F
But the world took a spark like a match in the
             Dm                  F
dark and the fire brought me to life

        C                           Am    F
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high
                C        Dm                Am  F
'cause there's no other way we can stay alive

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

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

So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high
Because there's no other way we can stay alive

Chorus

Don't let the fire die
It gets better
Just don't let the fire die, no

Chorus

And though the embers are new, whatever you do
Just don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
