[Intro] Gm D [Verse 1]
Gm                                         F
Racing cross the heavens straight into the dawn

Gm                                       F   C
Looking like a comet slicing through the morn

Gm                                    F
Scorching the horizon, blazing to the land

Gm                                              F   C
Now, he's here amongst us, the age of fire's at hand

[Verse 2]
Gm                                 F
Everything he touches fries into a crisp

Gm                                        F   C
Let him get close to you so you're in his trip

Gm                                             F
First you'll smoke and smolder, blister up and singe

Gm                                                      F     C
When ignition hits you the very soul of your being will cringe

     Gm                                                  F
He's come to make you snap out of the state that you are in

Gm                                       F   C
Looks around and make you see the light again

Gm                                           F
So much self-indulgence results in shattered eyes

Gm                                         F   C
Predominant complacency leads to beguiling lies

[Verse 4]
Gm                                      F
When he leaps amidst us with combustive dance

Gm                                         F    C
All shall bear the branding of his thermal lance

Gm                              F
Cauterizing masses melting into one

Gm                                      F   C
Only when there's order will his job be done
