[Break] [Bridge] In our darkest hours we have all asked for some angel to come sprinkle his dust all around but all our crying voices they can’t turn it around you’ve had some crazy conversations of your own. |-----(5)----------------| |------(5)------5-5-5-5--| |----(7)-(7)---7-5-------| |------------------7-----| |--------------------7---| |------------------------| [Verse] We’ve got rules and maps and guns in our backs but we still can’t just behave ourselves even if to save our own lives so says I We are a brutal kiiiiiiiiiiindd. [Chorus] Cuz this is nothing like we’d ever dreamt Tell Sir Thomas More we’ve got another failed attempt Cuz if it makes them money they might just give you life this time. Wooo-ooo Wooo-ooo Wooo-ooo End on Am
