G#m               E  F#
This world is on fire
G#m               E  D#
This world is on fire


[Chorus]
G#m              F#          B                  D#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
G#m                F#               B               D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
G#m             F#     B             D#m
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
G#m                F#                B              D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?


[Verse 1]
     G#m             F#
It's hard to make it in a world wasted
B                E
All this hatred, I'm impatient
G#m                F#
All these changes, different places
B               E
Looking sacred, got the aces
G#m                F#
Lot of faces, look what we're facing
B                E
Across a nation, who can make it?
G#m                 F#
Yeah, we're racing, I can taste it
B                  E
Who can change it? It's the Matrix


[Pre-Chorus]
E           F#         G#m
 Everything has its turn
       B               E
After all we've learned
        F#            D#
What is it we've earned

Just to watch it burn!


[Chorus]
G#m              F#          B                  D#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
G#m                F#               B               D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
G#m             F#     B             D#m
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
G#m                F#                B              D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?


[Verse 2]
G#m              F#
Empire's fallen, help is calling
B                 E
Though we all win, we keep crawling
G#m                F#
There ain't no sin that we'll fall in
B                E
It looks so dim, but we're all in
G#m                    F#
Through the cold wind, we can see in
B                     E
We ain't leaving what we believe in
G#m               F#
If it's freezing, ain't no reason
B                      E
We're still breathing, sun is screaming


[Pre-Chorus]
E           F#         G#m
 Everything has its turn
       B               E
After all we've learned
        F#            D#
What is it we've earned

Just to watch it burn!


[Chorus]
G#m              F#          B                  D#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
G#m                F#               B               D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
G#m             F#     B             D#m
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
G#m                F#                B              D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?


[Verse 3]
G#m                E
Above the carnage, couldn't stop it
B                 F#
Where we started, it was promised
G#m           E
All departed, almost lost it
B            F#
It restarted through the hardship
G#m           E
Was abolished but accomplished
B              F#
It was rotted, went the farthest
G#m               E
Earth demolished, wasn't gone yet
B                D#
Not forgotten, forgive our sins


[Pre-Chorus]
G#m         E           B
 Everything has its turn
       F#              G#m
After all we've learned
        E             B
What is it we've earned
N.C.
Just to watch it burn!


[Chorus]
G#m              F#          B                  D#m
This world is on fire, we're restless and we're tired
G#m                F#               B               D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?
G#m             F#     B             D#m
I don't hear no choir, all I see are liars
G#m                F#                B              D#m
Is there someplace other than this, maybe somewhere higher?


[Outro]
G#m F# B                F#
       Maybe somewhere higher
G#m F# B               D#m
       Maybe somewhere higher
C#m B D# G#m
C#m B D#                    G#m
      Maybe somewhere higher
