[F] Oh
[C]
[G]
[Am] my God, look around this [F] place [C] Fingers reach around the bone

[C] present pain All [G] fools say
Oh [F] my God,
[C] [G]
[F]
[C] [G]
oh [Am] my God Why are we so [F] afraid?
We'll [C] make it worse when we don't bleed There is [G] no cure for our disease
Turn [Am] a phrase, and rise [F] again Or fake [C] your death
And then they tell your closest [G] friends Oh [F] my God,

[Am] While I lay I dream we're [G] better Scales were gone and faces [C] flatter
When we wake we hate our [F] brother We still move to hurt each [Am] other

Force below my heavy [F] breathing What makes me so badly [Am] bended
We all have a chance to murder [G] We all feel the need for wonder
