[Intro 1]
[Am][E][Am][Dm][Am][E][G#][C][Am]
[F][F#dim][F#m][G][G#dim][E]
[Am][E]
[Am][E][Am][E]
[Am]
[F][D][G]
[G#dim]
[E]Nightmare Now your nightmare

[Verse 1]
[Am]

[Verse 2]
comes to life
[C]Dra[Am]gged you down below,
[C]down to [Am]the devil's show
[C]To be [Am]his guest forever (peace of
mind is [D]less [C]than [Am]never)
Hate to twist your mind,
[C]but God[Am] ain't on your side
[C]An old[Am] acquaintance severed (burn the
[C]world your [D]last [C]endeavor)
[Am]Flesh is burning,
you can smell it in the air
'Cause men like you have such an
easy soul [C]to steal (steal)
[Am]So stand in line while they ink
numbers in your head
You're now a slave until the
end of time here
Nothing stops the madness [C]turning
[D]Haunting, [C]yearning, [Am]pull the trigger

[Verse 3]
You should've [G]known [C]the price of evi[F]l
[Am]And it hurts to know[G] that you belo[C]ng here,
[F]yeah
[E]Ooh, it's your fuckin' [Am]nightmare
While your nightmare comes to [C]life[Am]

[Verse 4]
[C]Can't [Am]wake up in sweat,
[C]'cause it [Am]ain't over yet
[C]Still [Am]dancin' with your demons [C](victim of
your [D]own [C]creation)
[Am]Beyond the will to fight,
[C]where all[Am] that's wrong is right
[C]Where hat[Am]e don't need a rea[D]son
[C](loathing self-assassination)
[Am]You've been lied to just to
rape you of your sight
And now they have the nerve to tell
you how to [C]feel [D](fe[C]el)
[Am]So sedated as they medicate your brain
And while you slowly go
insane they tell you
Given [C]with the [D]best intentions
Help you with your [Am]complications

[Verse 5]
You should've [G]known [C]the price of evi[F]l
[Am]And it hurts to know[G] that you belo[C]ng here,
[F]yeah
[Am]No one to ca[G]ll, ever[C]ybody to fear[F]
[Am]Your tragic fate[G] is lookin' so clear[C], yeah[F]
[E]Ooh, it's your fuckin' [Am]night[E] ma[Am]re
Ha, ha, [F]ha,[F#dim]
[D][G][E][Am][C][Am]
[C][Am][C][F]
[D][G]
[G#5][Am][C][Am][C]
[Am][C][Am][C][Am][C][F][G]
[G#5]ha[Am]

[Verse 6]
[Am]Fight (fight), not to fail
(fail), not to fall (fall)
Or you'll end up like the others
Die (die), die again
(die), drenched in sin (sin)
With no respect for [F]another[C]
[Am]Oh
Down (down), feel the fire
(fire), feel the hate (hate)
Your pain is what we desire
Lost (lost), hit the wall (wall), watch
you crawl (crawl)
Such a replaceable [F]liar

[Verse 7]
And I [F]know you hear their [G]voices
[F](calling from above)
And I know they may seem [G]real
(these signals of love)
[F]But our life's made up of [G]choices
[F](some without appeal)
They took for [Bm]granted your [D]soul[G]
And it's [E]ours now to [Am]steal

[Verse 8]
As your nightmare comes to life
[Am]
You should've [G]known [C]the price of evi[F]l
[Am]And it hurts to kn[G]ow that you belo[C]ng here,
[F]yeah[Am]
No one [G]to call, [C]everybody to fea[F]r
[Am]Your tragic fate[G] is looking so clear[C],
[F]yeah[E]

[Outro 1]
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
