Dm                     Gm  A#
Feeling like it's all over
Dm                       C  G
Feeling like there's no love
Dm                      Gm A#
Feeling like it's not easy
Dm                      C  G
Breathing life in the dust

Chorus:
F#                G#
On a countdown to zero
Take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't going to be heroes
There ain't going to be anything, oh
C                              D#  A#
Here it comes, here comes the night
F                           A#
Here it comes, hell in the night
C                              D#  F
Here it comes, here comes the night

When we all fall down

When we all fall do
When we walk into silence
When we shadow the sun
When we surrender to violence, oh
Then the damage is done
Put away that gun
I don't want to be there
I don't want to be anywhere, oh

Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night

      C                 C#     G#  D#
We're fighting for the Gods of war
     G#              C#       G#  D#
But what the hell we fighting for?
       G#               C#      G# D#           G#5
We're fighting with the Gods of war  but I'm a rebel
F
And I ain't going to fight no more, no way

Chorus

We're fighting for the Gods of war
But what the hell we fighting for?
We're fighting with the Gods of war
And I ain't going to fight no more
(Stop)

Stop fighting for the Gods of war
(Stop fighting for the Gods of war)
Yeah what the hell we fighting for?
(What in the hell we fighting for?)
We're fighting with the Gods of war
Heavy!
