[Intro]
C#m E A X4
[Verse]
C#m E A
Keeping my thoughts under wraps tonight
C#m E A
Keeping my feelings to myself
C#m E A
I'm already broken hearted
C#m E A
So let's get this party started
C#m E A
The darkness comes with you
C#m B A
With longing and desire
C#m E A
Your anger burns inside your eyes
C#m B A
They flash like burning coal
[Chorus]
D#m B X2
D#m B Bb
Get out your head, get out your head
D#m B Bb
Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake
D#m B Bb
Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out
D#m B Bb B
Fake it till you make it, breakneck the world, Blackout
[Verse]
C#m E A X2
C#m E A
All the hurt you nurse inside
C#m E A
You better cough it up
C#m E A
Beautiful like shards of glass
C#m B A
In your throat that cut you up
[Chorus]
D#m B Bb
Get out your head, get out your head
D#m B Bb
Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake
D#m B Bb
Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out
D#m B Bb B
Fake it till you make it, breakneck the world, Blackout
[Bridge]
C D# X2
C D# C D#
That was such a wicked thing to say
C D# Bb B
That was such a spiteful thing to do
C D# C D#
You smiled as the words spew right out your mouth
C D# Bb B
So I laugh in your face right back at you
[Verse]
C#m E A X2
There's no reward for men who weep
No medals given out
C#m E A
But better be the one who speaks
C#m B A
Than be the man who won't
(You, and you, and you, and you)
[Chorus]
D#m B X2
D#m B Bb
Get out your head, get out your head
D#m B Bb
Try not to think, be cool, be calm, be fake
D#m B Bb
Dumb yourself down, numb yourself out
D#m B Bb B
Fake it till you make it, breakneck the world, Blackout
[Outro]
C#m E A
......We all blackout
C#m E A
......We all blackout
C#m E A
......We all blackout
C#m B A
......We all blackout
