E                 D
I've been waiting,
          E
elevating,
              D   E
hanging on a line
              D
Hate to say it
                   C
your new favourite’s
               D   E
going out of style
                 D
Threw away those
                 E
of broken heroes,
                  D  E
that just wasn't wise
           D
Hallelujah,
                    C
spread the news, boy,
                   D
don't believe the hype

   C   A
Alright
                       G   A
Are you afraid of the dark?
                        G  A
I know a place we can start

Chorus:
         E          D
But if this is our last time
 E            D
Make up your mind
      E        D           C
I’ve waited a lifetime to live
                A                  E  D E D E
It's time to ignite, I'm making a fire

I was baited
when I said I'd
never tell a lie
Lucky then I
took a stand and
finally hit my stride

Alright
Are you afraid of the dark?
I know a place we can start

Chorus

Are you afraid of the dark?
I know a place we can start

Chorus:
But if this is our last time
Make up your mind
I’ve waited a lifetime to live
It’s down to the wire

This is our last time
I’ve made up my mind
I've waited a lifetime to live
It’s time to ignite, I'm making a fire
