Intro: AmGDmFAmG
Murder lives forever
Dm
and so does war
F
It's survival of the fittest
Am
rich against the poor
G
at the end of the day
Dm
It's a human trait
F
hidden deep down inside of our DNAAm
One man can build a bomb
G
another run a race
Dm
to save somebody's life
F
and have it blow up in his face
Am
i'm not the only one who
G
finds it hard to understand
Dm
i'm not afraid of god
F
i am afraid of man
AmDm
is it running in our blood
FG
is it running in our veins
AmDm
is it running in our genes
FG
is it in our DNAAmDm
Humans aren't gonna behave
FG
as we think we always should
AmDmFG
yeah, we can be bad as we can be good
AmFG
Underneath it all we're just savages
AmFG
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages
AmFG
How could we expect anything at all?
DmFG
we're just animals still learning how to crawl
Am
we live, we die
G
we steal, we kill, we lie
Dm
just like animals
F
but with far less grace
Am
we laugh, we cry
G
like babies in the night
Dm
forever running wild
F
in the human race
AmG
another day, another tale of rape
DmF
another ticking bomb to bury deep and detonate
AmG
i'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand
Dm
i'm not afraid of god
F
i'm afraid of man
AmDm
you can see it on the news
FG
you can watch it on tv
AmDm
you can read it on your phone
FG
you can say it's troubling
AmDm
Humans aren't gonna behave
FG
as we think we always should
AmDmFG
yeah, we can be bad as we can be good
AmFG
Underneath it all we're just savages
AmFG
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages
AmFG
How could we expect anything at all?
DmF
we're just animals still learning how to crawl
AmFG
Underneath it all we're just savages
AmFG
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages
AmFG
Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave
DmF
we're just animals still learning to behave
FAm
All the hate coming out from a generation
GF
who got everything + nothing guided by temptation
FDm
were we born to abuse, shoot a gun + run
GF
or has something deep inside of us come undone?
FAm
is it a human trait or is it learned behaviour
GF
are you killing for yourself or killing for your saviour?
AmFG
Underneath it all we're just savages
AmFG
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages
AmFG
How could we expect anything at all?
DmFG
we're just animals still learning how to crawl
AmFG
Underneath it all we're just savages
AmFG
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages
AmFG
Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave
DmFG
we're just animals still learning to behave
