[F#]Bb [-]- [244322]688766
------------------
[C#]Chairs thrown and tables toppled,
[G#]Hands armed with broken bottles,
[A#m]Standing no chance to win but,
[F#]We're not running, we're not running.
C#, G#, A#m, F#
[C#]There's a point I think we're missing,
[G#]It's in the air we raise our fists in,
[A#m]In the smiles we cast each other,
[F#]My sister, my brother.
[C#]About the time we gave up hoping
[G#]We'd ever find these locks still open,
[A#m]Stumbling on stones unturned,
[F#m]The hurt we feel, we all have earned.[C#] [G#]
The lines we c[A#m]ross in search of change,
But a[F#]ll they see is treason.
[C#]Although we have no obli[G#]gation to stay ali[A#m]ve
On broken backs we beg for m[F#]ercy, we will survive[C#]
[C#](Break out) I won't be l[G#]eft here
Behind closed d[A#m]oors.[F#]
[C#]Bonfires burn like beacons,
[G#]Guiding the lost and weakened.
[A#m]Flames dance on crashing waves,
[F#]Guiding ships who've gone astray
[C#]Time out, let's stop and think this t[G#]hrough,
We've all got better things to [A#m]do,
Than talk in circles, run in p[F#]lace,
[C#]Although we have no obli[G#]gation to stay ali[A#m]ve
On broken backs we beg for m[F#]ercy, we will survive[C#]
[C#](Break out) I won't be l[G#]eft here
Behind closed d[A#m]oors.[F#]
C#, G#, A#m, F# (optional)
[C#]Black eyes, broken fingers,
[G#]Blood drips and I let it [A#m]run
Down my l[F#]ips into my swollen gums.
[C#]When hope is non-existent,
[G#]Our instincts all scream "[A#m]Run",
We never t[F#]urn our backs or even bite our to[C#]ngues.
(single strums here in these next two lines)
[C#]Although we have no obli[G#]gation to stay ali[A#m]ve
On broken backs we beg for m[F#]ercy, we will survive[C#]
[C#](Break out) I won't be l[G#]eft here
Behind closed d[A#m]oors.[F#]
[C#]Although we have no obli[G#]gation to stay ali[A#m]ve
On broken backs we beg for m[F#]ercy, we will survive[C#]
[C#](Break out) I won't be l[G#]eft here
Behind closed d[A#m]oors.[Bb]
