Belly Of The Beast Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][G][D][A]
[G][D][A]

[Verse 1]
Here again [G]I find myself
In the [D]belly of [A]the beast
Trying to make [G]sense
Of all this [D]ruin and de[A]cline
There's no seat at [G]the table for
The [D]beggars at the [A]feast
[G]Or anybody [D]unprepared

[Interlude 1]
to toe the line
[A][G][D][A]

[Verse 2]
The dogs of war [G]devour doves
And [D]beggars at the [A]feet
Hawks and [G]greedy leaders
That clap [D]along and bare their teeth
[A]An insipid and compli[G]ant press
In [D]lockstep on [A]the beat
Splashing three [G]word slogans
Neither [D]them or us believe
[A]

[Verse 3]
Oh, [G]please forgive that
[D]Step into the [A]dark
This road will lead us [G]nowhere
This [D]path will see us [A]lost
Oh, I guess [G]everybody's got
A [D]rubicon to [A]cross
The future's suf[G]focating on
An [D]echo from the pas[A]t
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
[A]
It's all the same [G]to me
If you're red, [D]green, white, black or [A]blue
[D]It's [A]your hands that hold the [G]reins
Your only [D]mandate is the truth
[A]A guardian of futur[G]e's
For the [D]ragged and the [A]bruised
A mouthpiece for [G]the voiceless
Not a [D]vassal of the [A]few
The saying goes [G]that people get
The [D]leaders they de[A]serve
Take a look [G]at our leaders
I guess that [D]makes us all absurd

[Interlude 2]
[A][Bm][C#]

[Verse 5]
[A]Oh, [G]please forgive that
[D]Step into the [A]dark
This road will lead us [G]nowhere
This [D]path will see us [A]lost
Oh, I guess [G]everybody's got
A [D]rubicon to cross
[A]The future's suffoc[G]ating on
An [D]echo from the [A]past

[Verse 6]
[A]The saying goes that people get
The [G]leaders they deserve
[D]Here we are in the belly
of [A]the beast
The saying goes that people [G]get
The [D]leaders they de[A]serve

[Outro 1]
[G][D][A][A][G][D]
