Am   G   Dm   F 


Am              G 
Murder lives forever  
             Dm 
and so does war 
                      F 
It's survival of the fittest 
                    Am 
rich against the poor 
                    G 
at the end of the day 
               Dm 
It's a human trait 
                   F                         
hidden deep down inside of our DNA 

Am            
One man can build a bomb 
G 
another run a race 
Dm 
to save somebody's life 
F 
and have it blow up in his face 
Am 
i'm not the only one who 
G 
finds it hard to understand 
Dm 
i'm not afraid of god 
F 
i am afraid of man 
       Am               Dm 
is it running in our blood 
       F                 G 
is it running in our veins 
       Am                Dm 
is it running in our genes 
       F               G 
is it in our DNA 
       Am               Dm 
Humans aren't gonna behave 
      F                 G 
as we think we always should 
   Am          Dm       F          G 
yeah, we can be bad as we can be good 

     Am                     F       G 
Underneath it all we're just savages 
     Am                     F       G 
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages 
     Am                     F       G 
How could we expect anything at all? 
             Dm                 F     G 
we're just animals still learning how to crawl 

Am 
we live, we die 
G 
we steal, we kill, we lie 
Dm 
just like animals 
F 
but with far less grace 
Am 
we laugh, we cry 
G 
like babies in the night 
Dm 
forever running wild 
F 
in the human race 
Am                  G 
another day, another tale of rape 
Dm                    F 
another ticking bomb to bury deep and detonate 
Am                     G 
i'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand 
Dm 
i'm not afraid of god 
F 
i'm afraid of man 
Am              Dm 
you can see it on the news 
F               G 
you can watch it on tv 
Am              Dm 
you can read it on your phone 
F               G 
you can say it's troubling 
       Am               Dm 
Humans aren't gonna behave 
      F                 G 
as we think we always should 
   Am          Dm       F          G 
yeah, we can be bad as we can be good 

     Am                     F       G 
Underneath it all we're just savages 
     Am                     F       G 
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages 
     Am                     F       G 
How could we expect anything at all? 
             Dm                 F 
we're just animals still learning how to crawl 
     Am                     F       G 
Underneath it all we're just savages 
     Am                     F       G 
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages 
     Am                     F       G 
Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave 
             Dm                 F 
we're just animals still learning to behave 

F                            Am 
All the hate coming out from a generation 
G                            F 
who got everything + nothing guided by temptation 
F                            Dm 
were we born to abuse, shoot a gun + run 
G                            F 
or has something deep inside of us come undone? 
F                          Am 
is it a human trait or is it learned behaviour 
G                          F 
are you killing for yourself or killing for your saviour?  

     Am                     F       G 
Underneath it all we're just savages 
     Am                     F       G 
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages 
     Am                     F       G 
How could we expect anything at all? 
             Dm                 F      G 
we're just animals still learning how to crawl 
     Am                     F       G 
Underneath it all we're just savages 
     Am                     F       G 
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages 
     Am                     F       G 
Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave 
             Dm                 F       G 
we're just animals still learning to behave
