Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em]
[Bm][Em][Bm][Em][Bm][Em]
[Bm][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Walking the street with her na[Bm]ked [Em]feet
So full of rhythm but [Bm]I
can't find the [Em]beat
Snapping her heels [Bm]clicking
her [Em]toes
Everybody [F#]knows just [B]where she goes
[Ebdim]Ah

[Verse 2]
[G]fear, [D]fear,
she's the mother of viol[Em]ence[D]
[C]Making me tense to [G]watch
the [D]way she [G]breed
[D]Fear, she's the mother of violence
[Em]You [D]know sel[C]f-defense
is is all you need
[D]

[Verse 3]
It's getting hard to [C]breathe[D]
It's getting so hard to be[C]lieve[D]
To believe in anything at all
[G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]Mouth all dry [Bm]eyes, bl[Em]ood shot
Data stored [Bm]in m[Em]icrodot
Kicking the cloud with my
[Bm]moccasin [Em]shoes
T.v. [F#]Dinner, [B]T.V. News

[Verse 5]
Ah [G]'cause fear
[D]Fear, she's the mother of viol[Em]ence[D]
Don't [C]make any sense to
[G]watch the [Am]way she [G]breed
[D]Fear, she's the mother of violence
[Em]Maki[D]ng m[C]e tense to
[G]watch the way [C]she [D]feed

[Verse 6]
[D]The only way [G]you [C]know she's [D]there
Is the subtle flavor in the [C]air
Getting hard to [D]breathe
Hard to believe in anything
at [G]all[Gsus4][G]

[Outro 1]
But fear
[Em][Bm]
[Em][Bm][Em]
[Bm][Em][Bm]
