Misc Originals – Daniel Ryder - Build An Empire For Me (Guitar)

Am
What have they done for you?

            E
Do they not care?

          Am
Are they exploiting you?

           E
Is it not fair?

     C             E7       Dm
Then throw in your lot with me

F                  E       Am
I'll show you what rulers should be

Dm        E        F
Infinite power corrupts

      F     E            Am
Says anyone stuck in the mud

    Dm             E            F
Now brush off the dust and the dross

     F           E           Am
And wake up the fire in your blood

Am
Are they avoiding you?

             E
Do they all stare?

         Am
Does it disquiet you?

          E
Will you despair?

C              E7           Dm
Wipe off those smug little smiles

    F              E            Am
And show them how tough you can be

      C          E7          Dm
Climb over their dumb little lives

    F              E         Am
And take back your power for me

            Dm        E       F
You thought infinite power corrupts

          F        E            Am
Back when you were stuck in the mud

               Dm              E            F
But now you've brushed off the dust and the dross

    F           E          Am
And earned your power with blood

            F   G    C    E7   Am
Now you can rip them from their thrones

   F     G         C E7 Am
Go break all their tiny bones

      F     G       C          E7       Am
Let's tear down the walls that keep you out

    F        E7         Am
And build an empire for me

Am
Have I not rescued you?

           E
Do you not care?

              Am
See what I've done for you?

         E
Isn't it fair?

     C       E7           Dm
To give me a seat at your head

      F             E7          Am
I'll laugh when you fuckers are dead
