Intro:
A D Bmsus4 E x2
Verse 1:
A D
All these rats are swimmin' for the land
Bmsus4 E
They ain't goin' down with the captain
A D
Same old rats that took a bite outa' me
Bmsus4 E
Darling way back when the word was mutiny
Bridge:
D E
Nothin' but a raft to carry me and my girl
A D
They just wrote us off
Bmsus4 E
'Til we turned the blazing torches on their docks
Chorus:
(Amaj7) A D
One night we're gonna' burn 'em down
(Amaj7) A D
One night we're gonna' burn 'em down
(Amaj7) A D
One night we're gonna' burn 'em down
Verse 2:
A D
And the same goes for those who underestimate
Bmsus4 E
Said the love of my life was just another blind date
A D
You know I hardly had a single edgewise
Bmsus4 E
Before the true believers started to drop like flies
Bridge:
D E
But I don't see 'em out parading arm in arm
A D
I see 'em dodging cars in harm's way
Bmsus4 E
You think with so many words of wisdom they could fill up a library
Chorus:
(Amaj7) A D
But one night I'd have to burn it down
(Amaj7) A D
One night I'd have to burn it down
(Amaj7) A D
One night I'd have to burn it down
Middle part:
E Bmsus4
I can think of at least fourteen ways to disappear
E Bmsus4
No I don't need to be told when it's plain as day I'm in the minority here
G F#m(7) B
But why should all the horrible people have all the cheer
Verse 3:
A D
Blue green grass is standing somewhere still
Bmsus4 E
I know it is even if it's over landfill
A D
I got to think that there's still a tiny patch
Bmsus4 E
To raise some hens and watch those chickens hatch
Bridge:
D E
Browsing through the almanac I watch the stars
A D
That plummet now and then
Bmsus4 E
And I'm waiting for a flamin' shoe to drop on us again
Chorus:
(Amaj7) A D
One night gonna' burn it down
(Amaj7) A D
One night we're gonna' burn it down
(Amaj7) A D
One night we're gonna' burn it down
A D
Gonna' burn it down
A D
We're gonna' burn it down
A D
We're gonna' burn it burn it burn it burn it down
Outtro:
A D x6
