[Intro]
Bm
A5 B5
[Verse 1]
N.C.
So hold your head and hold your tongue
Bm
But only say what you have to
F#sus4/C# D
And as a child, yes, I dreamed
Em7 Bm
Of holding her in the silver screen
F#sus4/C# D
She loved her man but loved him twice
Em7 Bm
I wish I'd been that passenger
F#m7* D
Having fun, fly my kite
Em7 Bm
The devil inside won't control my life
F#m7* D
And too much love, so little hate
G A Gmaj7
The devil inside won't control my fate
[Chorus]
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, if only, if only
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, he wasn't so lonely
D/F# Gmaj7
He'd have someone to play with
D B5 F#m/C#
Instead of bombing our neighbours
D5 E5
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Bm F#sus4/C# D
So here I go to see the world
Em7 Bm
With my eyes and with my soul
F#5 D
And too much love, so little hate
Em7 F#5 Gmaj7
The devil inside won't control my fate
[Chorus]
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, if only, if only
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, he wasn't so lonely
D/F# Gmaj7
He'd have someone to play with
D Bm9
Instead of bombing our neighbours
D/F# A5 B5
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
N.C
So hold your head and run my time
Bm
The what of life no man can rhyme
F#sus4/C# D
So here we are and here we bleed
Em7 Bm
To be a victim, there's no need
F#sus4/C# D
Having fun, I never fight
Em7 Bm
The devil inside controls my life
F#m D
Too much love so little hate
Em7 F#m7 Gmaj7
The devil inside will control my fate
[Chorus]
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, if only, if only
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, he wasn't so lonely
D/F# Gmaj7
He'd have someone to play with
D
Instead of bombing our neighbours
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, if only, if only
D/F# Gmaj7
Oh, he wasn't so lonely
D/F# Gmaj7
He'd have someone to play with
D
Instead of bombing our neighbours
