[Intro/Verse]
Dm  C/E  F  Gm  Am  x4

Dm                  C/E               F   Gm  Am
 Some nights I just feel this need to run
Dm                  C/E             F                    Gm  Am
 Some nights I just want to burn to death, just like the sun
Dm                  C/E             F    Gm  Am
 Some nights I just long to lose control
Dm                  C/E           F              Gm    Am
 Some nights I just wish for destiny to touch my soul

[Prechorus]
         Dm                C/E              F      Gm  Am
It's the feeling that it's all too safe and sound
      Dm                C/E             F                Gm
And I need something to shake me up and strike me to the ground
  Am       Gm
A storm to come
            Bb
And root me up
           Bdim
And let me run
             C
Just burn my wings
C#dim     Dm
Touch the sun
          C/E
So let me fly
            F
Just let me fall
            Gm
Just let it come

[Chorus]
                   Dm  F  Bdim
I wanna taste it all
        Bb           Dm  F  Bdim
I wanna falter and fall
        Bb         Gm
I wanna run from civility
               Bb
The flags of morality
                 Bdim
Just go with the wild in me
              C      C#dim    Dm
Regardless of nation creed or policy
                 C/E
Just pulling you close to me
                   F                  Gm
Just peel off this thin skin of humanity
                                    Dm
Sometimes I feel the beast gets the best of me

C/E  F  Gm  Am

Dm  C/E  F  Gm  Am

[Verse]
Dm               C/E               F    Gm  Am
 It's not that I don't want what I have
Dm               C/E          F            Gm  Am
 It's not that I ever want to make anybody sad
Dm               C/E            F   Gm  Am
 It's not that I want to hurt myself... no
Dm                   C/E           F                Gm    Am
 But some things are better broken than left on the shelf

[Prechorus]
         Dm             C/E               F    Gm
It's the hunger and the restlessness that call
Am        Dm         C/E           F              Gm
Oh, sweet vertigo, a lust enticing me to take the fall
   Am      Gm
So lock me up
            Bb
So chain me down
            Bdim
And build a wall
            C        C#dim     Dm
Destroy the wolf and break his crown
              C/E
Just file his claws
             F
And pull his teeth
               Gm
Cause when I'm free

[Chorus]
                     Dm  F  Bdim
I'm gonna taste you all
          Bb           Dm  F  Bdim
I'm gonna falter and fall
        Bb         Gm
I wanna give up my dignity
            Bb
Give into inequity
              Bdim
Sleep with my enemy
               C
Explode like a sun
    C#dim       Dm
And become your gravity
                 C/E
Just pulling you into me
              F               Gm
It takes everything to refill me
                                    Dm         C/E
Sometimes I feel the beast gets the best of me

[Outro]
  F  Gm
Oh
    Am             Dm
The beast gets the best of me

C/E  F  Gm  Am

(Metal rhythm start)

Dm  C/E  F  Gm  Dm  C/E  F  Gm  Am x2

Dm  C/E  F  Gm  Am x2

      Dm           C/E              F   Gm  Am
It is not for everyone to touch the sun
         Dm                 C/E               F
You must let them fly, just let the wild ones run
          Gm     Am     Dm
Just stay safely on the ground
             C/E
Just give me all
              F
I'll give you more
            Gm      Am       Gm
Just let me roam, unlock the door
            Am
Release the beast
            Bb
Just set me free
