Shock Value

  D                      A 
I like to make 'em smile 
        Bm                       F#m 
Telling lies right to their face 
             D                 A 
They call me sinister and vile 
      Bm                F#m 
God I live to entertain 
D                        A 
 I choose a character in style 
                       Bm 
Play it up just like a game 
                   F#m 
This ain't Monopoly 
Bm                             A 
 They take me in, they start a trial 
                            E 
Yeah they think that I'm insane 
                       N.C. 
But they love watching me 



D                  A 
 I give them just enough

                   D 
But it's nothing new 
              A                       F#m 
I do all the things they're afraid to do

  D                      A 
I think that she's a mess 
          Bm                F#m   
By that I really mean myself 
          D            A 
She takes over my head 
           Bm                F#m 
Like I'd become somebody else 
      D               A 
And I smile but I'm dead 
       Bm             F#m 
Like I climb six feet down 
             Bm           A 
They call it metamorphosis 
                    E              N.C. 
'Til they taste the blood on my mouth

D               A 
 I get home at six AM 
F#m            E 
 Just feeling dirty again 
D                 A 
 Take a shower to wash off my sins 
F#m                 E 
 The holy water is burning my skin 
Bm            C#m 
 Can I get it all off my chest? 
D                 Dm 
 Confessing to a God that don't exist
