Chorus:
               Cm
This is the beginning
                  G#
Hell's bells are ringing
              A#
This is the start
                           Cm
We came to shoot for your heart

Cm
Up and away far away
D#
Stayed up all night, slept all day
F
The gang is back in town
G
And the girls are melting down
Cm
Up and away, I've heard them say
D#
"Crazy spiders are on their way"
F
Electrified from head to toe
G
Fired up, ready to go

Chorus

Lights go down, the pulse goes up
When baby, we're about to rock
We live it up tonight, you bet
I can sleep when I'm dead
Living free like a bird
Heaven is a place on earth
Can't find the door to say goodbye
Maybe tomorrow but not tonight
Not tonight

Chorus:
This is the beginning
Hell's bells are ringing
This is the start
We came to shoot for your heart
This is the beginning
Losers are winning
This is the start
We came to shoot for your heart

 Cm             G#
Monday morning, I come crawling
D#              A#
Out of my bed, the living dead
 Cm              G#
Monday morning, voices calling
D#               A#
Inside my head, just bring me back
A#                                       Cm
Just bring me back, just bring me back again
                 D# A#
Just bring me back

Chorus:
This is the beginning
Hell's bells are ringing
This is the start
We came to shoot for your heart
This is the beginning
Losers are winning
This is the start
We came to shoot for your heart

Shoot
Shoot, oh yeah
Shoot (Shoot), yeah
Shoot, shoot, shoot
We came to shoot for your heart
