Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)
"Monster" by Skillet
off the album "Awake" (2009)
Tabbed by HashtagMC
It's important to note that during the verse and intro, the 
C5C5 is
always played on the 8th note after the "2" beat, NOT on the "3"
beat, so the chord change is in the offbeat. Keep this in mind
to avoid confusion.

Maybe it's inside of me.
