Am                C
Rage is a quiet thing
                            G
Ooh, you think that you've tamed it
                   Dm
But it's lying in wait
Am                   C
Rage, is it in our veins?
               G
Feel it in my face when
               Dm
When I least expect it

Give in

Chorus:
Am
Control
There's so many ways to give in
C
Eyes closed
Another way to make it to ten
G                                          D
Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
Gotta simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down
Am
Control
There's so many ways to give in
C
Eyes closed
Another way to make it to ten
G                                          Dm
Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
Gotta simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down

If I had seen my reflection
As something more precious
He would've never
Mmm, and if my child needed protection
From a fucker like that man
I'd sooner gut him
'Cause nothing cuts like a mother

Give in

Chorus:
Control
There's so many ways to give in
Eyes closed
Another way to make it to ten
Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down
Control
There's so many ways to give in
Eyes closed
Another way to make it to ten
Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
(Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer)
Gotta simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down

(Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer)
(Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer)
Am               Em
Wrap yourself in petals (Yourself)
F                Em
Wrap yourself in petals (Control, yourself)
Am                          Dm
Wrap yourself in petals for armor (Control, control)
Am
(Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer)
Petals
(Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer)
For armor
(Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer)
(Simmer, simmer, simmer)

Give in

Chorus:
Control
There's so many ways to give in
Eyes closed
Another way to make it to ten
Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
Gotta simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down
Control
There's so many ways to give in
Eyes closed
Another way to make it to ten
Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
Gotta simmer, simmer, simmer
