     C#m             G#m
The deals we made to shake things up
         C#m7              G#m
And the rights that they abused
F#m               G#m B
Might just fuck us over
        C#m
But the doors won't shut
  G#m                       D/F#           C#
Until they're sure there's nothing left to use
A6              G#m B
Someone's taking over
G#m                 B  C#m7
Threw it away, but now I say
     F#m7           C#m B
It's time to hand it over

    C#m                   G#m
The joke's worn thin, the king stepped in
       C#m           G#m
Now we'll see who is who
F#m               G#m B E D# D B
Look who's bending over

        C#                       C#7
But the stars weren't wrong, the time felt right
   Bm               F#
We both knew it was true
Am                  E B
The smart ones exit early
F#m                     G#m   B
And the rest hope for a shoulder

      C#m               G#m
If we lose our touch, it won't mean much
   C#m        G#m
If everyone's confused
F#m             G#m B E D#7 D B
Which door do we open?

        C#m                   G#m
It's the same old trick, they played their hand
            D/F#                 C#
Now there's one thing to left to do

Chorus:
     F#m          C#m B
This time (Hand it over)
                    G#m           B C#m
It's yours and it's mine (Hand it over)
                F#m7           C#m B
One thing on my mind  (Hand it over)
                G#m           B G#m
It's rightfully mine (Hand it over)
       F#m7         C#m B
In the dark (Hand it over)
                G#m           B G#m
What's yours is mine (Hand it over)
            F#m7          C#m B
Mm, make it right (Hand it over)
                   G#m           B C#m
And give me what's mine (Hand it over)

         F#m7         C#m B
Oh, this time (Hand it over)
               G#m           B C#m
It's yours and mine (Hand it over)
          F#m7           C#m B
Hey, it's time to hand it over
                    G#m           B C#m
Just give me what's mine (Hand it over)
       F#m7         C#m B
Mm, anytime (Hand it over)
                    G#m           B C#m
It's yours and it's mine (Hand it over)
           F#m7          C#m B
Oh, I need time (Hand it over)
                        G#m           B C#m
No, no, it's rightfully mine (Hand it over)
