Dm
Waking in the rubble
Am/C
Walking over glass
Gm
Neighbours say we're trouble
Asus4                A
Well that time has passed
Dm
Fearing from the mirror
Am/C
No, that isn't me
Gm
A stranger getting nearer
Asus           A
Who can this person be?
Gm           Dm/F             A
You wouldn't know me at all today
A7
From the fading light I fly


[Chorus]

Gm
Rise like a phoenix
Bb
Out of the ashes
        Dm
Seeking rather than vengeance
C                     Gm
Retribution, you were warned
              A                  F
Once I'm transformed, once I'm reborn
                Gm
You know I will rise like a phoenix
Asus4             A
But you're my flame


[Verse 2]

Dm
Go about your business
Am/C
Act as if you're free
Gm
No one could have witnessed
Asus4           A
What you did to me
Gm                  Dm/F
'Cause you wouldn't know me today
Eb  Eb/D            Cm  Cm/Bb   A
And you have got to see      to believe
A7
From the fading light I fly


[Chorus]

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


[Bridge]

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


[Chorus]

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