C                F      C 
When the god of love returns 
              F      C 
There'll be hell to pay 
             F        Am          Em 
Though the world may be out of excuses 
        F                 C 
I know just what I would say 
                 F       C 
Let the seven trumpets sound 
              F         C 
As a locust sky grows dark 
                  Am            Em                F              C 
But first let's take you on a quick tour of your creation's handiwork

Barely got through the prisons and stores 
                     F             C 
And the pale horse looks a little sick 
                           Am                Em 
Says, "Jesus, you didn't leave a whole lot for me 
                                  F                   C 
If this isn't hell already then tell me what the hell is?" 
F C  
 
Chorus
             E              F 
And we say it's just human, human nature 
                Am 
This place is savage and unjust 
E                
We crawled out of the darkness 
F 
And endured your impatience 
Am 
We're more than willing to adjust 
                       Adim          C  Csus2  
And now you've got the gall to judge us 
 
Verse
             F        C 
The spider spins his web 
             F        C 
The tiger stalks his prey 
              Am             Em              F                 C 
And we steal fire from the heavens to try to keep the night at bay

              F      C 
Every monster has a code 
                        F      C 
One that steadies the shaking hand 
            Am                      Em         F                C 
And he's determined to accrue more capital by whatever means he can 
F C 
 
Chorus
                E       C 
Oh, it's just human, human nature 
F                              Am 
We've got these appetites to serve 
E                               C 
You must not know the first thing about human beings 
F                                Am 
We're the earth's most soulful predator 
                     Adim                           C 
Try something less ambitious the next time you get bored 
Csus2 
Oh, my Lord 
 
Outro
               F           C 
We just want light in the dark 
       F            C 
Some warmth in the cold 
              Am               Em                 F             C 
And to make something out of nothing sounds like someone else I know
