Version 1 Version 2[Intro] Eadd2 [Verse 1] E F#m Well they’d better save some space for me G#m A In that growing cottage industry B G# C#m Where selfishness is currency A People spend more than they make E F#m So I wrapped my head in bandages G#m A From the string of happy accidents B G# C#m I guess maybe I asked for it A But who am I to say [Pre-Chorus 1] G#sus4 G# C#m B The closing bell death tolls, hear the market crash A B E A crying trader swears he’ll get out of the game G#sus4 G# C#m E/B F#7/A# The cowboy drinks himself to death, fresh out of rehab A Bsus4 B While they’re loading all the rifles on the range [Chorus 1] N.C. E Look up at that Everest A Look down in that Mariana Trench C#m B Look now as the crumbling 405 falls down, oh when the big one hits E Look out for the plainclothes A Look out for what the wiretap knows C#m B Look out on the ever-widening money trail and where it goes E [Verse 2] E F#m It takes a lot of gall to try to please G#m A These dehumanizing entities B G# C#m I befriended all my enemies A They had my back against the wall E F#m Oh a coward is what a coward does G#m A I suppose maybe I always was B G# C#m But I’m sick of it, I’ve had enough A And now I’m ready for the war [Pre-Chorus 2] G#sus4 G# C#m B The lion bows his head down to the ringmaster A B E With the tightrope stretched so high above the crowd G#sus4 G# C#m E/B F#7/A# All these faces are contortionists, it must have hurt A Bsus4 B ’Cause they all looked as unhappy as a clown [Chorus 2] N.C. E Look long at that Stonehenge A Look quick is it something you missed C#m B Look into that smoldering building’s bombed out fog until it finally lifts E Look up at that big wave A Look down at your other brother’s grave C#m B Look hard for a harder something to sacrifice, that’s what it takes That’s what it takes [Bridge] F#m G#m That’s what it takes, hmm F#m G#m That’s what it takes, ha F#m G#m That’s what it takes, ha A B Ha, ha, ha [Chorus 3] E Look up at that Everest N.C. A Look down in that Mariana Trench C#m B Look now as the crumbling 405 falls down, oh when the big one hits E Look out for the plainclothes A Speak soft what the wiretap knows C#m B Look out on the ever-widening money trail and where it goes E Emaj7 E Emaj7 E Emaj7 E Emaj7 E Where does it go?
