[Verse 2]
Well the bloodsucker society,

I took a sip of their sobriety,
it doesn't taste that good
Well at [D5]first you're

[Verse 3]
[Am]fine with
[D5]working over[Am]time
[D5]10 years go [Am]by til you're

[Verse 5]
They try to fill you with anxiety,
until you bite the hook
They drop a line of notoriety,
they got a big cheque book
Oh they'll [D5]turn you

Attention all [Bb]personnel!

Until you're [C]in the [F]ground
So don't [E]waste a single [E5]breath[F]
On what so[E]ciety [F]expects

They're gon[F]na [Am]take [E5]you f[D5]or
a [C]ride un[Bm]til y[B]ou d[Am]ie!
