Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[E5]It is the fire that lights itself
[Em]But it burns with a restless flame
The arrow on a moving target
[Esus4]The archer must be sure o[E5]f his aim

[Verse 2]
It is the [E5]engine that drives itself
But [Em]it chooses the uphill climb
A bearing on magnetic north
Growing farther [E5]away all the time
[Em]Can't stop

[Verse 3]
moving
Can't [A]stop [Em]moving[E5][Em]
[E5]Can 't stop
[A][G][A][A5][C#]

[Verse 4]
You may [Gb]be right
It's all a waste of time
I [Db]guess that's [Cb]just [Db]a chance
I'm prepared [B]to take[C#]
A [A]danger I'm prepared [G]to [A]face[G]
Cut [A5]to the chase
[C#]

[Verse 5]
Just [A]a danger I'm prepared [G]to face[A5]
Cut to the chase
[C#][E5]

[Verse 6]
[Em]It is the [E5]rocket that ignites itself
[Em]And launches its way to the stars
A driver on a busy [A]free[Em]way
Racing the ob[E5]livious [Em]cars

[Verse 7]
It's [Em]the motor of the western [E5]world
[Em]Spinning off to every extreme
Pure as a lover's [D]de [Em]sire
Evil as a murderer's [E5]dream
[Em]Can't stop

[Verse 8]
moving
[E5]Can't stop[Em] moving
Can't stop
[C#]

[Verse 9]
You may [F#]be right
It's all a waste of time
I [Db]guess that's just a chance
I'm prepared to take
A danger I'm prepared to face
Cut [A5]to the chase
[Db]

[Verse 10]
Just [A]a danger I'm prepared to face
Cut [A5]to the c[Db]hase

[Interlude 1]
[Db][E5][Em][D][Em]
[G][Em]

[Verse 11]
[A]Young enough not to care too [Am]much[C]
About [D]the way things [A]used
[A5]to be[A][Am][A][A5]
I'm young enough [A]to re
[A5]member [Am]the fut[C]ure
The [D]past has no claim [A5]on m[Am]e

[Verse 12]
I'm [Em]old enough n[E5]ot to care t[Em]oo m[G]uch
[A5]About what you think [Em]of me
But I'm young enough to
remember the fu[G]ture
The [A5]way things ought t[Em]o be

[Verse 13]

[E]Cut
[A]Cut to [A5]the chase

[Verse 14]
[Db]
You may [Gb]be right
It's all a waste [Cb]of time
I [Db]guess that's just a chance
I'm prepared to take
A [A]danger I'm prepared to face
Cut [A5]to t[C#]he chase
What kind of dif[A]ference
can one person make?
Cut to the chase
[C#]

[Verse 15]
You may [F#]be right
It's all a waste of time
I [Db]guess that's just a chance
I'm prepared to take
A danger I'm prepared to face
Cut [Cb]to t[C#]he chase[F#]
What kind of dif[A5]ference [A]can
one person [A5]make?[A]
Cut [B]to the [C#]chase
