E Late at night, all systems go, you've come to see the show G E We do our best, you're the rest, you make it real, you know G E There's a feeling deep inside that drives you fucking mad G E A feeling of a hammerhead, G C B you need it, oh, so bad Chorus: A F#m C B Adrenaline starts to flow A F#m C B A You're thrashing all around F#m Acting like a maniac Whiplash! Bang your head against the stage like you never did before Make it ring, make it bleed, make it really sore In a frenzied madness with your leathers and your spikes Heads are bobbing all around, it's hot as hell tonight Chorus: Adrenaline starts to flow You're thrashing all around Acting like a maniac Whiplash! Here on stage, the Marshall noise is piercing through your ears It kicks your ass, kicks your face, exploding feeling nears Now's the time to let it rip, to let it fucking loose We're gathered here to maim and kill, cause this is what we choose Chorus: Adrenaline starts to flow You're thrashing all around Acting like a maniac Here we go! Whiplash! The show is through, the metal's gone, it's time to hit the road Another town, another gig, again we will explode Hotel rooms and motorways, life out here is raw But we'll never stop, we'll never quit, 'cause we're Metallica Chorus: Adrenaline starts to flow You're thrashing all around Acting like a maniac Whoa, whoa You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C  E  F#m  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
