  			verse 1 
          D 
Well they say that we are tragic 
         C 
And they say we're born to lose 
           G 
You're the misfit I'm the sinner 
           D 
You're the heathen I'm the fool 
      D 
But today you'll be the master 
       C 
Or the slave it's up to you 
      G 
Oh my beautiful disaster 
        D 
Take me anyway you choose 

Pre-Chorus 1 
Bb 
  Don't fight it 
G 
  Ignite it 
Bb              C A 
  This much I’m sure 

  D                  F                 Bb    G 
I think it's time to set this world on fire 
  D                  F              Bb    A 
I think it's time to push it to the edge 
D              F                   Bb    G 
Burn it to the ground and trip the wire 
       D     F             C    A 
It may never be this good again

verse 2 
     D 
It's like a new religion 
         C 
Speak in tongues come see the light 
       G 
Do not trip on inhibitions 
          D 
That will only waste my time 
       D 
Let me tempt you with the evils 
       C 
Of the flesh and so much more 
       G 
Like a Babylon redeemer 
       D 
Like a pusher like a whore

I think it's time to push it to the edge 
D              F                   Bb    G 
Burn it to the ground and trip the wire 
       D     F             C    A 
It may never be this good again 

Interlude 2 

A 
 It’s so dark I can't see 
A 
 All the truth inside us 
A 
 All I want is to feel 
A                 C               D 
 Something that’s real before the end
