Intro:    G    Am    Em    C 


 Verse: 
    G 
 I see your light 
Am                          Em 
 I know it’s coming and I’m terrified 
C                          G 
 No more defences here to hide behind 
Am               Em    C 
 Oh, just you and I 
        G 
 And through the smoke 
Am                         Em 
 I see you burning like a ray of hope 
C                         G 
 I found the fire now the ashes glow 
Am            Em    C 
 Oh, I come alive 


 Pre-Chorus 
               G 
 And now that I’m awake 
     Am 
 I’m not afraid 
     Em            C 
 I’m letting go tonight 


 Chorus: 
       G                         Am 
'Cause we found strength in each others’ arms 
     Em                     C 
 We built this love and we made it our 
    G       Am      Em    C 
 Empire, empire, empiiiiire 
      G                      Am 
 And you and I can rule each others’ hearts 
        Em                      C 
 We’ll build on love and we’ll make it our 
    G       Am       Em    C 
 Empire, empire, empiiiiiire 


 Verse: 
   G 
 Stone by stone 
Am                           Em 
 We’ll build a tower we can call our own 
C                               G 
 So high that we’ll forget the world below 
Am                Em C 
 Oh, just you and I, I 


 Pre-Chorus 
              G 
 So let the drums roll 
     Am 
 The cannons blow 
       Em            C 
 We’re letting go tonight

 Empire, empire, empiiiiire 
      G                      Am 
 And you and I can rule each others’ hearts 
        Em                      C 
 We’ll build on love and we’ll make it our 
    G       Am       Em    C
