Verse 1:
Bb Across the flCatlands we came Dmout of nowhere spCecial
Like a Bbpeasant revolCution - makeshift Dmweapons in our hAmands
We Bbcrashed the gates so hCard we'd never Dmheard that kind of sCound before
And Bbbraced ourselves for Cvictory and the sDmpoils of the Amland
DefGmences melt away before our Amfrozen blank surprise
From the Gmpalace now we stare into a Amillion waiting eyes
Chorus:
I've got my Dmtrophies on the wF/Call, the heads I've Amhunted down the hall
And I gDmuard my winnings F/Cwell, carry them Amwith me when I fall
Now the Dmdaylight hours F/Cpass like the Ampeople I have lost
In the Dmtriumph of the F/Chour, in the Ambloody cause - lust for power
Riff with verse chords (Bb C Dm C)
Verse 2:
Bb Like a Cvision she dances Dmthrough the shafts of liCght
EverytBbhing I've ever drCeamed about Dmfocused true and Ambright
And Bbfortune opens Cup the ground, Dmblackens out the sCky
I Bbkissed her once, I Ckissed her twice but I Dmcouldn't remember wAmhy
When GmI was young they taught me well to Amalways play to win
But they Gmnever said what happens when you've Awon the bloody game
Chorus
Bridge:
(Gm F Eb) x2
And Cmall desire is satisfied but Dstill the hunt goes on
It's Gmfunny how this feeling stays with Aall the reasons gone
Verse 3:
We've Bbseen them fat and blCoated those who Dmonce could hold a flCame
I've Bbrun for home and Cwords gone by but Dmnothing seems the sAmame
I can Bbwatch the world in Csecrecy from Dmone side of this Cglass
From the Bbother my reflCection and I Dmdon't know which is wAmorse
The sGmtreets are lined with glittering stores and a Ammillion fatted calves
I can Gmcatch myself sometimes these days and Aall I do is laugh, laugh
Chorus
