Riot chords by Mikky Ekko

Chords with lyrics

Drop D MajorD tuning

The G#5G#5 is used only very quickly. Listen to the song for timing.
When going from F5F5 to F, you actually move to C#5C#5 and slide the whole way up really quickly, I just don't
have any space to show that in the tab.
In the Bridge:, only play the bass note of each chord.

F5F5


Verse 1:

F5F5     G#5G#5 F5F5        G#5G#5 F5F5
Mouthy girlfriends talk on cell phones
      G#5G#5 F5F5 C#5C#5
Leave the TV   on
F5F5     G#5G#5 F5F5    G#5G#5 F5F5
I walk slowly, liquor heavy

Concrete in my bones
F5F5    G#5G#5 F5F5    G#5G#5 F5F5
I'm not useless, just abusive
   G#5G#5 F5F5
No pouting at home

Cause the clock is ticking, the clock is ticking

And I can't figure out why we're not freaking out

Yeah but nothing's happening

Come on, come out, in to the night
  A#5A#5        C#5C#5
And live the road then learn to fight

We are a riot if we want it

We want it

Asphyxiation
F5F5  G#5G#5 F5F5       G#5G#5 F5F5
God of fire, build it higher
     G#5G#5 F5F5 FF
Burn the castle down
     A#5A#5
Cause the clock keeps ticking, the clock keeps ticking

And I can't figure out why we're not freaking out

We want it
