Verse:
D                G      D
When the god of love returns
              G      D
There'll be hell to pay
             G        Bm          F#m
Though the world may be out of excuses
        G                 D
I know just what I would say
                 G       D
Let the seven trumpets sound
              G         D
As a locust sky grows dark
                  Bm            F#m                G              D

Verse:
                          G           D
Barely got through the prisons and stores
                     G             D
And the pale horse looks a little sick
                           Bm                F#m
Says, "Jesus, you didn't leave a whole lot for me
                                  G                   D
If this isn't hell already then tell me what the hell is?"
G D

Chorus:
             F#              G
And we say it's just human, human nature
                Bm
This place is savage and unjust
F#
We crawled out of the darkness
G
And endured your impatience
Bm
We're more than willing to adjust
                       Bdim          D  Dsus2
And now you've got the gall to judge us

Verse:
             G        D
The spider spins his web
             G        D
The tiger stalks his prey
              Bm             F#m              G                 D
And we steal fire from the heavens to try to keep the night at bay
G D
              G      D
Every monster has a code
                        G      D
One that steadies the shaking hand
            Bm                      F#m         G                D
And he's determined to accrue more capital by whatever means he can
G D

Chorus:
                F#       D
Oh, it's just human, human nature
G                              Bm
We've got these appetites to serve
F#                               D
You must not know the first thing about human beings
G                                Bm
We're the earth's most soulful predator
                     Bdim                           D
Try something less ambitious the next time you get bored
Dsus2
Oh, my Lord

Outro:
               G           D
We just want light in the dark
       G            D
Some warmth in the cold
              Bm               F#m                 G             D
