             B    C#        E 
You know the night is our addiction 
         B            C#           E 
It feels right in the blaze of the stars 
                 B        C#       E 
And that's cause we spend too much thinking 
          B            C#                   E 
Hoping to find a place better than where we are 

           A                         C#m      B 
They got a red flag for the beast in me 
          A                                    C#m 
And they're feeding fire that burns beneath my feet 
            B 
I'll let it burn 

E 
Wake up 
                           B 
Come on and catch a little lightning 
                           A 
There's darker places than this 
                           C#m   B 
There's darker places than this 
E 
Wake up 
                           B 
Come on can't you hear the thunder 
                           A 
There's darker places than this 
                           C#m   B 
There's darker places than this 

           B       C# 
If they're right 
                     E   
You know the satisfying burn 
       B    C#             E    
Of the fear we all grew to learn 

       A                                         C#m     B 
And we wait for something, anything to happen at all 
      A                                         C#m      B 
Oh we wait for something, anything to happen at all 

E 
Wake up 
                           B 
Come on and catch a little lightning 
                           A 
There's darker places than this 
                           C#m     B 
There's darker places than this 
E 
Wake up 
                           B 
Come on can't you hear the thunder 
                           A 
There's darker places than this 
                           C#m     B 
There's darker places than this 

       A                                         C#m    B 
And we wait for something, anything to happen at all 
      A                                         C#m     B 
Oh we wait for something, anything to happen at all 

(Softly) 
          A                          C#m     B 
They got a red flag for the beast in me 
           A                        C#m        B 
And they're feeding fire that burns beneath my feet

There's darker places than this 
E 
Wake up 
                           B 
Come on can't you hear the thunder 
                           A 
There's darker places than this

There's darker places than this
