Intro
Dm C F C x2
Dm A# C
This world is on fire
Dm A# A
This world is on fire
[Chorus]
Dm C F Am
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
Dm C F Am
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
[Verse 1]
Dm C
It's hard to make it in a world wasted
F A#
All this hatred, I'm impatient
Dm C
All these changes, different places
F A#
Looking sacred, got the aces
Dm C
Lot of faces, look what we're facing
F A#
Across a nation, who can make it?
Dm C
Yeah, we're racing, I can taste it
F A#
Who can change it? It's the Matrix
[Pre-Chorus]
A# C Dm
Everything has its turn
F A#
After all we've learned
C A
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn!
[Chorus]
Dm C F Am
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
Dm C F Am
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
[Verse 2]
Dm C
Empire's fallen, help is calling
F A#
Though we all win, we keep crawling
Dm C
There ain't no sin that we'll fall in
F A#
It looks so dim, but we're all in
Dm C
Through the cold wind, we can see in
F A#
We ain't leaving what we believe in
Dm C
If it's freezing, ain't no reason
F A#
We're still breathing, sun is screaming
[Pre-Chorus]
A# C Dm
Everything has its turn
F A#
After all we've learned
C A
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn!
[Chorus]
Dm C F Am
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
Dm C F Am
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
[Verse 3]
Dm A#
Above the carnage, couldn't stop it
F C
Where we started, it was promised
Dm A#
All departed, almost lost it
F C
It restarted through the hardship
Dm A#
Was abolished but accomplished
F C
It was rotted, went the farthest
Dm A#
Earth demolished, wasn't gone yet
F A
Not forgotten, forgive our sins
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm A# F
Everything has its turn
C Dm
After all we've learned
A# F
What is it we've earned
N.C.
Just to watch it burn!
[Chorus]

This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
Dm C F Am
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
Dm C F Am
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
[Outro]

Maybe somewhere higher
Dm C F Am
Maybe somewhere higher
Gm F A Dm
Gm F A Dm
Maybe somewhere higher
