D       A         G
Give myself as a sacrifice
A Asus4 Dsus2 D G      D         A
Genuflecting  ghost I kiss the floor
 D        A      G      Bm
Rise, my love, show me paradise
A Asus4 Dsus2  D  G     D   A
Nothing seems so simple anymore

Chorus:
Em     Bm      A    Asus4 Dsus2 D
Rest assured, words come easy
G    D     A   Asus4 Dsus2 D
Insecure, love and please me
Em      Bm    A  Asus4 Dsus2 D
Sacred word, bind me,  insult
G      D          A
As I praise your name

Now we dance in our catastrophe
Ramparts in the sky that flash with horror
Let's take these chances, no more amnesty
Nothing else remains as once before

Chorus:
Rest assured, empires will fall
Insecure, restless and small
Sacred word, bind me, insult
As I praise your name

Give myself as a sacrifice
Genuflecting ghost I kiss no more
Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
