[Intro]
Am C G F (x2)
[Refrain]
[Am]Gently [C]as we go, [G]gently as we[F] go
[Am]Steady [C]as we go, [G]steady as we[F] go
[Verse 1]
[Am]I can [C]sense in opening the [G]front door [F]as we came in
[Am]You were [C]burning a hole in my [G]back[F]
[Am]Can we [C]turn this around from where we [G]lost you [F]in the evening
[Am]Before [C]things get out of [G]hand[F]
[Chorus]
[Am]One by one [C]eyes go optic, [G]we're becoming [F]the beast
[Am]Shear power and the [C]heat of hate brings our [G]army of two to its [F]knees
[Am]Steel lungs are [C]shouting the house down, [G]going for the kill from t[F]he kiss
[Am]Battle stations are now [C]navigation, have we [G]driven love to [F]this?
[Refrain]
[Am]Gently [C]as we go, [G]gently as we[F] go
[Am]Steady [C]as we go, [G]steady as we[F] go
[Verse 2]
[Am]All [C]fired up, you're a [G]hot mess [F]getting messier
[Am]I'd do [C]anything for [G]sleep[F]
[Am]But I can think of [C]far better ways to [G]waste your [F]energy
[Am]If you can [C]bare to still [G]touch me[F]
[Chorus]
[Am]One by one [C]skin hardens, [G]we're becoming [F]the beast
[Am]Shear power and the [C]heat of hate brings our [G]army of two to its [F]knees
[Am]Steel lungs are [C]shouting the house down, [G]going for the kill from t[F]he kiss
[Am]Battle stations are now [C]navigation, have we [G]driven love to [F]this?
[Bridge]
[Am]Have we left,[C] have we left the building?
[G]Did we die a little[F] death?
[Am]Is this the [C]end of the road for us, [G]no more bridges for us to [F]burn left?
[Am]Do we finally [C]find ourselves at the [G]point of n[F]o return?
[Chorus]
[Am]One by [C]one, [G]we're becoming the b[F]east
[Am]Shear power and the [C]heat of hate brings our [G]army to its knees[F]
[Am]Steel lungs are [C]shouting the house down, [G]going for the kill from t[F]he kiss
