  Because love is against the law
C                                       A#

A#
  You fight the lies
F                                    C
  Everybody tries to tell you you’re dead

A#                            F                  C
  It flashed before your eyes before anybody had said
A#                        F                           C
  The motherfuckers never stop drilling holes in your head

  Oh but then you die so slow
F
  Hands up drop the gun
                                       C
  Get shot, you’re dead and that’s the whole of the law
C
  You close your eyes to look at the lies
               A#
  And then you see it all
F                                                 C
  A freeze frame lasts forever but the picture is small

Verse 3:

C                                                 A#
  They say that love is everywhere and that’s the damned disdain
F
  Hits in your eyes
                              C
  And butterflies are part of everything
C
  The cloudy skies

  The fog in your eyes
                A#
  The will that lets you see
F
  A chance to fall

  And hear the call
               C
  And grab the magic ring


Refrain 2:

A#                            F                           C
  Don’t be surprised when you wake up and tell you you’re dead
A#                             F                  C
  You’ll find that hope is the same as nothing as all
A#                        F                           C
  The motherfuckers never stop drilling holes in your head
A#
  And maybe now as you’re starting to sink
F                                                C
  You’ll wake up and remember the words to your song

A#
  Maybe now as it’s starting to sink
F                                            C     C
  you’ll wake up to discover you’re singing along
