     VERSE 1

    
    Em            Edim Em      Edim  Em C   Em   Edim Em
Mr. Malum's got a sec--ret, he keeps on giv-ing  spee-ches.

         Em                          F#dim
Just a whisperinng pre--cision, that cuts through hesitation.

       G              C                B
With a sharp and able wit to keep the dogs at bay.


     PRE-CHORUS

         Am      B          Em                G
When the truth arrives, you wont believe your eyes.

     Am             G         Am              B7
He's triumph's pessimist, but he's no less content.


     CHORUS

         G             Am
With the wo-rld in the grip of his hands,

                Em              Cm
He'll crush the air out of it's lungs. 


              G           Am
Say we don't want him to have it all,

             Em                C
But now it's just too late to ask,

            D                  B
Because his hold has turned so tight.

      
     VERSE 2

    Em             Edim Em      Edim  Em C    Em  Edim  Em
His puppets to the left and his pawns to line the right,

          Em               Edim Em     F#dim
But every eye is front and cen--ter, a cruel intoxication,

         G                 C                 B
From the sap that trickles down his branches to their mouths.


     PRE-CHORUS

         Am      B          Em                G
When the truth arrives, you wont believe your eyes.

  Am      G             Am           B
A vicious champion, but he's no less content.



     CHORUS

         G             Am
With the wo-rld in the grip of his hands,

                Em              Cm
He'll crush the air out of it's lungs. 


              G           Am
Say we don't want him to have it all,

             Em                C
But now it's just too late to ask,

            D                  B
Because his hold has turned so tight.



     BRIDGE

    Em                                  C
The air we're barely breathings not enough,

                D                      B7
And this final gasp that rattles us to bed,

         Em                             C                  
The last thing that we will see, is Mr. Malum.


            G
Tighten his tie,

                     C
When he slips on his suit, 

          G
A link to cuff,

                       Cm
And the shine of his shoes.

              D                                   B
But when the truth arrived, you didn't trust your eyes.



     SOLO/CHORUS: (notice it's just a broken up chorus)

G       Am  
   
Em      Cm

              G           Am
Say we don't want him to have it all,

             Em                C
But now it's just too late to ask,


     OUTRO
             G                       C
You had your chance, but you turned away again.
             G                       C
You had your chance, but you turned away again.
             G                           Cm         Cm6  
You had your chance, but you turned your eyes away again.
