Intro
C#m B E B x2
C#m A B
This world is on fire
C#m A G#
This world is on fire
[Chorus]
C#m B E G#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
C#m B E G#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
C#m B E G#m
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
C#m B E G#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
[Verse 1]
C#m B
It's hard to make it in a world wasted
E A
All this hatred, I'm impatient
C#m B
All these changes, different places
E A
Looking sacred, got the aces
C#m B
Lot of faces, look what we're facing
E A
Across a nation, who can make it?
C#m B
Yeah, we're racing, I can taste it
E A
Who can change it? It's the Matrix
[Pre-Chorus]
A B C#m
Everything has its turn
E A
After all we've learned
B G#
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn!
[Chorus]
C#m B E G#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
C#m B E G#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?

[Verse 2]
C#m B
Empire's fallen, help is calling
E A
Though we all win, we keep crawling
C#m B
There ain't no sin that we'll fall in
E A
It looks so dim, but we're all in
C#m B
Through the cold wind, we can see in
E A
We ain't leaving what we believe in
C#m B
If it's freezing, ain't no reason
E A
We're still breathing, sun is screaming
[Pre-Chorus]
A B C#m
Everything has its turn
E A
After all we've learned
B G#
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn!

[Verse 3]
C#m A
Above the carnage, couldn't stop it
E B
Where we started, it was promised
C#m A
All departed, almost lost it
E B
It restarted through the hardship
C#m A
Was abolished but accomplished
E B
It was rotted, went the farthest
C#m A
Earth demolished, wasn't gone yet
E G#
Not forgotten, forgive our sins
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m A E
Everything has its turn
B C#m
After all we've learned
A E
What is it we've earned
N.C.
Just to watch it burn!
[Chorus]
C#m B E G#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
C#m B E G#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
C#m B E G#m
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
C#m B E G#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?

Maybe somewhere higher
C#m B E G#m
Maybe somewhere higher
F#m E G# C#m
F#m E G# C#m
Maybe somewhere higher
