Gm
Our lives run different ways
F                   C
Through the rain I see you in the sun
Our star shines anyway
If you wish upon it, we are one

Chorus:
Gm         A#
Dog eat dog, every day
F              C
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog, to get by
Hope you like my genocide

I find it such a shame
Through the pain I see things as they are
We're served up on a plate
Pedestal is high enough to fall
And if in time, we can see the errors of our ways
Would anyone change it anyhow?
Our time is up

Chorus:
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog, to get by
Hope you like my genocide

Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog, to get by
Hope you like my genocide

I bet you'd only run
If you saw what goes inside our own
I bet you'd lead the way
If it were up to you decide, but it's not

Chorus:
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog, to get by
Hope you like my genocide

Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog, to get by
Hope you like my genocide

Like a silver flame
Like a suicide
Like your giving more

Mmm, I especially enjoyed that one...
Let's see what's next
