A/D G/D A/D G/D
Welcome to your life, there's no turning back,
A/D G/D
Even while we sleep, we will find you

Acting on your best behavior

Turn your back on mother nature,
Em F#m G A A/D G/D Ab G/D
Everybody wants to rule the world
It's my own design, it's my own remorse,
Help me to decide, help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure,
Nothing ever lasts forever,
Em F#m G A G
Everybody wants to rule the world

There's a room where the light won't find you
G D A G
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
