View chords used in this chart
[Intro ]3x: Em Bm D A
 
Em
I feel it all around
 
I feel it in my bones
 
My life is on the line
 
When I'm away from home
 
When I step out the door
 
The jungle is alive
 
I do not trust my ears
 
I don't believe my eyes
C
I will not fall in love
G
I cannot risk the bet
C
Cause hearts are fragile toys
Am Em
so easy to forget
 
Em
It's just another day
 
There's murder in the air
 
It drags me when I walk
 
I smell it everywhere
 
It's just another day
 
Where people cling to light
 
To drive away the fear
 
That comes with every night
 
[Refrão]
Em Bm D A
It's just another . . . . . . . It's just another day
Em Bm D A
It's just another . . . . . . . It's just another day . . .
 
C
It's just another day
G
When people wake from dreams
C
With voices in their ears
Am Em
That will not go away
 
Em
I had a dream last night
 
The world was set on fire
 
And everywhere I ran
 
There wasn't any water
 
The temperature increased
 
The sky was crimson red
 
The clouds turned into smoke
 
And everyone was dead
Em Bm D A
(but) There's a smile on my face . . . For everyone
Em Bm D A
There's a golden coin . . . That reflects the sun
Em Bm D A
There's a lonely place . . . That's always cold
Em Bm D A
There's a place in the stars . . . For when you get old
 
Em
There's razors in my bed
 
That come out late at night
 
They always disappear
 
Before the morning light
 
I'm dreaming again
 
Of life underground
 
It doesn't ever move
 
It doesn't make a sound
C
And just when I think
G
That things are in their place
C
The heavens are secure
Am Em
The whole thing explodes in my face
