[Intro] G#m C# E G#m C# E G#m C# E G#m C# F# E C# [Verse 1]
F#                    C#m              E
There's a fire on the borders and it's burning down the walls you built high

F#                                                              E     NC        E                                       E
And there's a steady stream of anger and it's spilling from the coasts, a tidal wave

F#                                A
And the words say we reap what we sow

                         E           F#
So where I bury you I'll build my home

                     F#                   E
In line to reclaim, but we're sick of the wait
[Chorus 1]
E           C#
We want it all and we want it now

A         E                       F#
Tonight I watched your fires burn out

        C#             F#                        A         E     B 
The cold dead hands we pried these guns from are yours. . .Oh Oh Oh Oh

E          C#                 F#
We want it all and we want it now

A                   E         F#
A tide is coming to drown you out

C#                   F#                           A        E        B
We make ourselves at home while your body's still warm. . .Oh Oh Oh Oh
[Verse 2]
C#                        F#             E          C#              E
Tradition tethers us to rituals and are we all just clocks on wrong times?

    C#         E                                      C#        NC
And something triggers each and every time I hear you say "God bless this place"

E        F#                     A
But your numbers are dwindling now

A           C#              E              B
And though endangered we'll still hunt you down

     F#m                            C#
With heads on a stake, long may you reign
[Chorus 2]
F#        C#m                F#m
We want it all and we want it now

A                      E         F#m
Tonight I watched your fires burn out

C#m                    F#m                       A         E     B
The cold dead hands we pried these guns from are yours. . .Oh Oh Oh Oh

E  C#                         F#
We want it all and we want it now

A                   E         F#
A tide is coming to drown you out

C#                   F#                           A        E     B
We make ourselves at home while your body's still warm. . .Oh Oh Oh Oh

And there's a fire on the borders and it's burning down the walls you built high

E                              F#             C#                                F#
And there's a steady stream of anger and it's spilling from the coasts, a tidal wave
[Chorus 3]
F#                        C#m                  F#
We want the motherfucking world and we want it now

A                      E         F#m
Tonight I watched your fires burn out

C#                                 F#            A        E      B
The cold dead hands we pried these guns from are yours. . .Oh Oh Oh Oh

[We want the world and we want it now]

C#
No I don't wanna wait

F#              A
I know a better way
[Outro]
A          E
So step aside come on

          F#
or better yet just go away

    C#               F#
Our chance has finally come

          F#                   A
There might not be another one now

E                  B
No we're not gonna wait

           A
We want it now

F#
Yeah we're dousing the flames

A                G#m   C#
We want it now
