_ [Ab] _ [Dm] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Dm] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
And yeah, I get it, you're an outcast Always under attack, always coming in last
Bringing up the [Ab] past, no [D] one owes you anything I think you need a shotgun blast
A [G] kick in the [Ab] ass, so [G] paranoid
[D] Watch it back! _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ [Dm] _ [D] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ [G] [F] Mmmmm, well oh [D] nah, here we go
Another loose cannon gone bipolar Flip couldn't get much lower
Quicksand's got no sense [Ab] of humor I'm [G] still laughing like hell
[D] And you think that my crime's on me Looking so [Abm] sorry that you gotta [Dm] believe
You've been [D] affected by social disease Well then
_ [Bb] Cause I created [D] the sound of madness [F] Wrote the book on pain
Somehow [C] I'm still here [Dm] to [Bb] explain That the darkest [D]
hour never comes in [F] the
night And you can sleep with a [C] gun
When you gotta wake up [F] and
Mmmmm, [Dm] _ [D] _
_ _ boy you say
[Em] _ [Ab] _ [Dm] _ [D] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ [G] [Dm] Mmmmm, cause I'm so sick of [D] this tombstone mentality
If there's an afterlife, well [Abm] it'll set you [D] free
But I'm not gonna part the sea Cause [Ab] you're a self [Dm]-fulfilling prophecy
[D] And you think that my crime's on me Looking so [Ab] sorry that you [Dm] gotta believe
You've been [D] affected by social disease [Abm] Well then
[E] _ [Bb] _ Cause I created [D] the sound of madness [F] Wrote the book on pain
Somehow [C] I'm still here [Dm] to [Bb] explain That the darkest [D] hour never comes in [F] the
night And you can sleep with [C] a gun
But when you gotta [G] wake up [Bb] and
Mmmmm, [D] _
[Bb] _ _ [D] boy you say _ _ _
[F] Mmmmm, [D] cause I'm [C] so sick [B] of this [Bb] tombstone mentality
When you gotta wake [D] up and
Ay, ay, ay, ay, [F] ay
And when you gotta [G] wake [Ab] up
When you gotta wake [D] up
[Bb]
Cause I [D] created the sound of madness [F] Wrote the book on pain
[Dm] Somehow [C] I'm still here to [D] explain [Bb] _
That the darkest [D] hour never comes [F] in the
night And you can sleep with [C] a gun
But when you gotta wake up
When you gotta wake up and [Ab] Aaaaaah

Cause I created [D] the sound of madness [F] Wrote the book on pain
[Dm] Somehow [C] I'm still here [G] to [D] [Bb] explain That the darkest [D] hour never comes in [F] the
night And when you wake with [C] a gun
