[Verse 1]
[C]Once
upon a nightmare
[D]Onc[C]e upon a time
[D]You're run[C]ning from temptation
[D]You[C] got lost
[G]And found that you don't
[C#]Belong [C]to any[D]body
[C]You're all the same

Whenever you don't [D]be have

[D]He kno[C]ws what to do
[D]Thr[C]ow some bones and mum[D]ble
[C]The devil's insid[G]e of [Em]you

[Verse 3]
[C]It might be contagious
[D]It [C]might change the plan
[D]Get bac[C]k in your tiny box[D]es
[C]Even if you can't
We say [D]you [Eb5]can

[Verse 4]
Join [Eb5]the congregation
Everybody's got to get in line and
We never justify
The choir [B]sings a nev[Eb5]er-ending [B]lie
lie

[Verse 5]
Pre-chorus: [G]When you
thought you were free
You [Em]didn't need a reas[A]on
No [B]reason to survive

big door closes
[Bm]And you wait[G]ing for the nail
Some[Em]body tell the world

[Verse 7]
[C]Once upon a nightmare
[D]Onc[C]e upon a time
[C#]You're running[C] from tomorrow
[D]You[C] got lost
[G]And found [Em]that another
[C]Day has turned to ashes
[D]Tak[C]en by the wind
[D]Fro[C]zen seeds of sorrow
[D]Nev[C]er to beg[Eb5]in
Join the celebra[B]tion

[Verse 8]
[Eb5]
And everybody's got to get in line and
We never justify
The choir sings a never-ending [B]lie
lie

thought you were free
You [Em]did not need a[A] reason
No [B]reason to survive

And you [G]waiting for the mail
Some[Em]body tell the world
[A]You're buried alive

[Verse 11]
[C]One more nightmare
Just [C]one more [C]time
Join the con[C]gregation
Everybody [C]get in line

[Verse 12]
Celeb[C]ra tion
The choir sings a lie
As you call
The hammer falls
And no one hears you cry

[Outro 1]
I'm buried alive
