Version 1
            [Intro]
| F#m  | F#m9  | Bm  | A   E  |

| F#m  | F#m  | D  | A   E  A  | 2x

| F#m  | F#m  |


[Verse 1]
 F#m                     D            E
We're biding time as we wait for the signal
  F#m                       D             E
Sharpening blades while we wait out the storm
F#m                    D         E
 These cold nights are almost unbearable
             A5   B5   F#m
But purpose keeps us  warm
                          D           E
Pledge allegiance while crossing our fingers
   F#m                   D             E
A bark with no bite, no teeth, just a roar
F#m                         D                E
 You're not a thorn in our side, you're a splinter
               A5  B5    E
We are ready, but we're bored


[Pre-Chorus 1]
      F#m          E       D
Just holding our place in line
    A           E/G#       D
And everything moves too slow now
  F#m      D/F#   E
Breaking away in time


[Chorus]
                   F#m
And they have the power
                 F#m
But we have the numbers now
                 D                    A      E
It's all just a constant illusion of control
       A/C#         F#m
They break us like horses
                   F#m
How long will we drag their plow?
           D
What will continue to be
     A        E
Is what we allow
A/C#   F#m
Oh-ooh-oh


[Verse 2]
F#m
 And still we worship at altars so empty
    F#m
Consumption of something we don't need at all
 F#m                                 E
Holes we can't fill, a never-ending song
   E
"Again, from the top now"


[Pre-Chorus 2]
 F#m              D             E
Textbook cases we all fit the profile
 F#m                 D           E
Mass surveillance we opened the door
  F#m
Prey on the fears
      D               E
The blurred lines of right and wrong
             A5  B5     D
Sped up 'til we can't slow down
    F#m        E    D
And at this veloci-ty
      A        E/G#    D
One wrong move and we go down
  F#m   D/F#         E
Brace  for the reckoning


[Chorus]
                   F#m
And they have the power
                 F#m
But we have the numbers now
                 D                    A      E
It's all just a constant illusion of control
       A/C#         F#m
They break us like horses
                   F#m
How long will we drag their plow?
           D
What will continue to be
     A        E
Is what we allow
A/C#   F#m
Oh-ooh-oh


[Bridge]
F#m
 Heavy are the chains
                 D
We fasten to ourselves
                E
Gathering the thorns
                  F#m
To shape into a crown
                         F#m
Is this saddle comfortable?
                             D
Do these reigns feel tight enough?
                             E
Will you gallop when you're kicked
                        F#m
Or throw the rider off?


[Pre-Chorus 3]
                            F#m
Are you the willing and the able
                      D
Or are you spoken for?
                              E
Destined to serve what you abhor
                      F#m
Until it all gives out
                            F#m
Listen, fuck what you call normal
                         D
And this pressure to conform (Break free)
                     E
It's your trail to blaze
                   Bsus2   A/C#   D   E
Or your bridge to burn
                Bsus2   A/C#   D   E
Your bridge to burn


[Instrumental]
| F#5  | F#5  | F#5  | F#5  |


[Chorus]
                     F#
Yeah, they have the power
                 F#m
But we have the numbers now
                            D         A      E
It's all just a constant illusion of control
       A/C#         F#m
They break us like horses
                   F#m
How long will we drag their plow?
              D
What will continue to be
     A        E
Is what we allow
      A/C#      F#m
What will we allow?
