[D]
[G] [D]
[Bm] [D]
[A] [G]
[D]
When the God of love returns, there'll be [Bm] hell to [D] pay.
And though the world [Bm] may be out of [D] excuses, I know just what I would say.
Let the seven trumpets sound as the locust sky [Bm]
grows [D] dark.
But first [Bm] let's take you on a [D] quick tour of your creation's handiwork.
[A] [G] [D]
Barely got through the prisons and stores,
and the pale horse [G] looks [C#] a little sick.
[D]
Says, Jesus, you [Bm] didn't leave a whole lot for me.
[D] This isn't hell already.
Then tell me what the hell is.
[Bm] [D]
Oh, and we [F#] say it's just [E] human, [Am] human nature.
[G] This place is savage and [Bm] unjust.
[F#]
We crawled out of the [E] darkness
[Am] and endured your
[G] impatience.
We're more than willing to [Bm] adjust.
And now you've got [D] the gall [G#] to judge [D] us.
[A] The
[D] [A] [D]
[A]
[Em] [A] spider [D]
spins his web, and the tiger [G] [Bm] stalks [D] his prey.
And [Bm] we steal fire [D] from the heavens to try to keep the night at bay.
Every monster has a code, [G] [D]
one that steadies [G] the shaking [D] hand.
And he's [Bm] determined to [D] accrue more capital by whatever means he can.
Oh,
[G] [D]
[F#] it's just [E] human, [Am]
our human nature.
[G] We've got these appetites to [Bm] serve.
[F#] You must not know the [E] first thing [Am] about human beings.
[G]
We're the earth's most soulful predator.
[Bm]
Try something [G#m] less ambitious [G#]
the next time you get [D] bored.
[Am] Oh, my Lord, [D] [A]
oh, my Lord, [D] [A] oh, my Lord, listen.
We just [G] want light
[D] in the dark
[G] and some warmth [D] in the cold
To make [Bm] something out [D] of nothing
[G] sounds like someone else I [D] know.
[N]
