E            D                   B
He's at it again And he's gonna win
Gonna take you for a hell ride anyway
E             A                      D
He's on your side, gonna throw you aside
And let the vultures pick apart what's left
E          D
Seems like everything
             B                                 E
Was just a fraction of a second from being okay
            A                          D
So run and hide cause we're all gonna die
And let the vultures pick apart what's left

Chorus:
E        B
I'll be back
E        B
I'll be back
E        B
I'll be back
E        B
I'll be back
             E  D A
He's at it again
     D          E D A D
He's at it again
        E           D   A
And it makes great television
           D       E D A D E
watching the world end

He's at it again and he's gonna win
Gonna take ya for a joy ride anyway
You're standing in line, better make up your mind
And let the bastards pick apart what's left of you
It seems like everything
Was just a fraction of a second from being a dream
So run and hide because we're all gonna die
And let the government decide what's left

Chorus

E        B
I'll be back
E        B
I'll be back
E        B
I'll be back
E        B
I'll be back

E                    D
Walk around I see a million possibilities
        B                      A
And I know there's nowhere to go
E                        D
And I can't comprehend things
that're so real seem so pretend
       F#             D
And I know, I don't know

Chorus:
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
He's at it again!
He's at it again!
And it makes great television
watching the world end
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
He's at it again!
He's at it again!
And it makes great television
watching the world end
