C#m E A Keeping my thoughts under wraps tonight C#m E A Keeping my feelings to myself C#m E A I'm already broken hearted C#m E A So let's get this party started C#m E A The darkness comes with you C#m B A With longing and desire C#m E A Your anger burns inside your eyes C#m B A They flash like burning coal Chorus: D#m B A# Get out your head, get out your head D#m B A# Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake D#m B A# Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out D#m B A# B Fake it till you make it, breakneck the world, Blackout All the hurt you nurse inside You'd better cough it up Beautiful like shards of glass In your throat they'll cut you up Chorus That was such a wicked thing to say That was such a spiteful thing to do You smile as the words spew out your mouth So I laugh in your face right back at you Oh-whoah There's no reward for men who weep No medals given out But better be the one who speaks Than be the man who won't (You, and you, and you, and you) Chorus We all blackout We all blackout We all blackout We all blackout We all blackout You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  B  C#m  D#m  E  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
