Dm C/E F Gm Am x4
Dm C/E F Gm Am
Some nights I just feel this need to run
Dm C/E F Gm Am
Some nights I just want to burn to death, just like the sun
Dm C/E F Gm Am
Some nights I just long to lose control
Dm C/E F Gm Am
Some nights I just wish for destiny to touch my soul
[Prechorus]
Dm C/E F Gm Am
It's the feeling that it's all too safe and sound
Dm C/E F Gm
And I need something to shake me up and strike me to the ground
Am Gm
A storm to come
Bb
And root me up
Bdim
And let me run
C
Just burn my wings
C#dim Dm
Touch the sun
C/E
So let me fly
F
Just let me fall
Gm
Just let it come
[Chorus]
Dm F Bdim
I wanna taste it all
Bb Dm F Bdim
I wanna falter and fall
Bb Gm
I wanna run from civility
Bb
The flags of morality
Bdim
Just go with the wild in me
C C#dim Dm
Regardless of nation creed or policy
C/E
Just pulling you close to me
F Gm
Just peel off this thin skin of humanity
Dm
Sometimes I feel the beast gets the best of me
C/E F Gm Am
Dm C/E F Gm Am
[Verse]
Dm C/E F Gm Am
It's not that I don't want what I have
Dm C/E F Gm Am
It's not that I ever want to make anybody sad
Dm C/E F Gm Am
It's not that I want to hurt myself... no
Dm C/E F Gm Am
But some things are better broken than left on the shelf
[Prechorus]
Dm C/E F Gm
It's the hunger and the restlessness that call
Am Dm C/E F Gm
Oh, sweet vertigo, a lust enticing me to take the fall
Am Gm
So lock me up
Bb
So chain me down
Bdim
And build a wall
C C#dim Dm
Destroy the wolf and break his crown
C/E
Just file his claws
F
And pull his teeth
Gm
Cause when I'm free
[Chorus]
Dm F Bdim
I'm gonna taste you all
Bb Dm F Bdim
I'm gonna falter and fall
Bb Gm
I wanna give up my dignity
Bb
Give into inequity
Bdim
Sleep with my enemy
C
Explode like a sun
C#dim Dm
And become your gravity
C/E
Just pulling you into me
F Gm
It takes everything to refill me
Dm C/E
Sometimes I feel the beast gets the best of me
[Outro]
F Gm
Oh
Am Dm
The beast gets the best of me
