        Em
You can look to the left or look to the right
     Em               C
But you will live in danger tonight
         Em
When the enemy comes, he will never be heard
                          C
He'll blow your mind and not say a word
B              D B         B C  D A B
Blinding lights, flashing colors
B
Sleepless nights

        C            A/C#
If the man with the power
       D                B/D#
Can't keep it under control

Chorus:
     Em                  D Em
Some heads are gonna roll
     Em                  C G D
Some heads are gonna roll
     Em                  D Em
Some heads are gonna roll
     Em                  C D
Some heads are gonna roll

The power-mad freaks are ruling the earth
Will show how little they think you're worth
With animal lust they'll devour your life
They'll slice your word to bits like a knife
One last day, burning hell fire
You're blown away

If the man with the power
Can't keep it under control

Chorus

C
Know what it's like
Em
When you're taken for granted
C
There goes your life
B       C    A/C# D Em
It's so underhanded

If the man with the power
Can't keep it under control

Chorus

Some heads are gonna roll
No, no
No, no
No, no
No
Some heads are gonna roll
No, no (Heads are gonna roll)
No, no (Heads are gonna roll)
Some heads are gonna roll
No, no (Heads are gonna roll)
No
Some heads are gonna roll
No, no (Heads are gonna roll)
No, no (Heads are gonna roll)
Some heads are gonna roll
No, no (Heads are gonna roll)
