As recorded by Zac Brown Band (2025 release) Tune down 1/2 step [Intro] E5 [Verse 1]
E5
How can you control me when I can't control myself?

E5
Flesh and blood and bone and rage will tear till nothing's left

E5
Fire is my spirit and the earth, it is my flesh

E5
Water is my blood and the wind, it is my breath

E5      N.C.
Ah
[Refrain]
E5
I am an animal

E5
I'm not a man

E5
I am, I am an animal

E5
And I won't be contained
[Verse 2]
E5
They take half what I make away and tell me not to speak

E5
Tyranny of evil men, the wolf among the sheep

E5
Fire is my spirit and the earth, it is my flesh

E5
Water is my blood and the wind, it is my breath
[Refrain]
E5
I am an animal

E5
I bite the hand

E5
I am, I am an animal

E5
And I will break these chains
[Instrumnetal Break] E5 [Chorus]
                          G5       A5
The wolves won't leave, relentless greed

    G5              A5                 B5
The madness of this fucking place, the shallow lives we lead

E5
No one for the people, only filling up their coffers

E5
While the poor man bleeds, the poor man bleeds

     A5                          C5            B5
Come for my guns and you'll see, I'm no man at all

   E5         A5 E5     G5
Animal, animal,    animal

                          G5       A5
The wolves won't leave, relentless greed

    G5              A5                 B5
The madness of this fucking place, the shallow lives we lead

E5
No one for the people, only filling up their coffers

E5
While the poor man bleeds, the poor man bleeds

Come for my guns and you'll see, I'm no man at all
