[Verse 1]
      G      C                  G          C
Don't praise distraction, don't let it in
      G       C                   G          D
Don't buy the certainty, it's the same thing
      G        C              C
Don't wait for meaning, don't wait to love
      C                           G       D
Don't give them nothing when they just want some

[Chorus]
        G        C                  G     C
Ease up with the screaming, what an awful sound
       C                                D
I will turn this goddamned thing around
     G          C     G                  C
Ever get the feeling, when you boil it down?
G                    C   Em   D       C       C
It's a bit revealing hooooooooooooow, ahhhhh

[Verse 2]
      C                            C
We're drawn to the madness like an accident scene
G            Am             D
Divvy up the sadness like a currency
C                          C
Drawn to whatever we don't have any more
G            A              D
Drawn to the demons and the wolf at the door
        C    C
Is this new?
      Am
Is it ancient?

[Verse 3]
         G       C              C
So don't cut and run, don't you strike the stage
          G        C               D
When your teenaged heroes have all gone gray
      G         C            G            C
Don't count the roses, don't wait to love
      C                      G    D
Don't give 'em nothing, they just want some

[Chorus]
        G        C                  G     C
Ease up with the screaming, what an awful sound
       C                                D
I will turn this goddamned thing around
        G       C                G        C
Sick of all the scheming, boy it trickles down
       G        C       Em     D      C     C
It's a bit revealing hoooooooooooooooooow

[Verse 4]
      C                         C
We're drawn to the madness like an accident scene
G            Am             D
Divvy up the sadness like a currency
C                          C
Drawn to whatever we don't have any more
G            Am             D
Drawn to the demons and the wolf at the door
C                           C
Drawn to whatever's hanging low on the tree
G        Am              D
Drawn to whatever prison tells us we're free
C                          C
Drawn to an ending that'll settle the score
G                Am              D
Drawn, but we'll try to keep the wolf at the door

[Outro]
        C       C
Is this new?
         Am      Am
Is it ancient?
       C         C
Are we screwed?
Am
Which is it?
