The year is 1991

Birds and people are living together in seemingly perfect harmony

Until one day a young man catches fire

This is phoenix

You
Gb7M                  Db             Ab/Db
You've been knocked down and got up again
        Bbm              Gb7M           Db     Ab
In the corner, you're surrounded, no defenders
     Bbm
Woah you
Gb7M            Db               Ab/Db
You've hid your fury and kept it in
          Bbm           Gb7M              Db
But it's time now you ignite and turn to embers

        Bbm7
Like a phoenix

You burst into fire burn

A thirst and desire
Gb7M
You transform, light up in a flash
      Ab
You spread your wings and rise from the ashes

Bbm
Phoenix

You burst into fire burn

A thirst and desire
Gb7M
You transform, light up in a flash
     Ab
You spread your wings and rise from the ashes

They gеt you down, but you get up
             Fm7                   Gb7M
They let you drown, but you don't stop
Ab                       Bbm    Fm7
You show them you're a phoenix

Get ready for verse two, Eletric Boogaloo

Bbm
You
Gb7M             Db             Ab/Db
You've seen the truth behind the veil
        Bbm                     Gb7M          Db      Ab
And you know that they're just looking for attention
     Bbm
Woah you
Gb7M              Db             Ab/Db
Don't let their ruthlessness prevail
         Bbm        Gb7M                  Db
Oh, it's time now, light your fire for ascension
