[Verse 1]

It's a power chord Ab5 (466xxx) followed by Riff 2

Ab5
Blowing 'cross the universe
Like a shooting star that lost its way
Riff 2 x2

Ab5
Looking back with no regrets
Living for what hasn't happened yet
Eiff 2 x2


[Chorus]

Two Guitars here :
Guitar 1 strums power chords, guitar 2 plays Riff 3 which mimics the vocal melody.

[Verse 2]

Ab5
Roller coaster flies off the track
Hits you in the face, stabs you in the back
Riff 2 x2 (in the back)

Ab5
They take your right, leave nothing left
Steal you blind, your mind and leave you deaf
Riff 2 x2 (leave you deaf)

Love 'em or leave 'em
No rhyme or reason
State of the nation
Pure intoxication
Feel the vibration
The anticipation
Simple survival
No more denial


[Bridge]

Ab5             Bb5
    Don't wanna waste no time
    Ab5          Bb5
I'm never losing track
     Ab5             Bb5
I've seen it all and so much more
      Ab5        Bb5
But I ain't seen nothing yet


(Solo)


[Chorus] (with third guitar part)

Love 'em or leave 'em
No rhyme or reason
Break out to make out
No change in the season
Feel the vibration
The anticipation
Simple survival
No more denial

Love 'em or leave 'em
