Intro: Bm G (D) Em (2x) 

verse 1: 
Em                        Bm 
  We're creatures of indecision, easily undone 
Em                  G 
  Caught inside collisions under a dying sun 
Em                     Bm                     Em 
  Take our time for granted, entitled in this life 
              G 
Entertain us now, we're owed everything in sight 

PreChorus 1: 
Em 
  Give us what we want 
Em                       G 
  What we don't want to earn  
                          Am 
Give us what we think we need  

But we don't wanna learn  


Em 
  In just a matter of minutes, just a matter of time 
C                 D 
 We could lose it all, we could lose it all 
Em 
  If all we are is just what we've earned 
C       D 
 We are the destroyers 
Em 
  Stop and take it in, think it through now 
C            D 
 Tread light on our future 
Em 
  If all we are is just what we've earned 
C       D 
 We are the destroyers 

Interlude: Bm G (D) Em (2x) 

verse 2: 

Em                      Bm 
  We seek tomorrow's sun, it's all for the taking here 
Em                    G 
  Only the valiant survive, live for better years 
Em                       Bm 
  Shut up and actually try, no one can help us now  
Em                      G 
  It's us against the tides, and will be 'til we die 

PreChorus 2: 

Em                         Em 
  No one gives you what you want  
                        G 
Don't get what you don't earn  
                      Am 
Can't have what you need,  

Only what you deserve.
