Raised By Bats

        D            A
Here at home in this steeple
        D                      
Made of chrome, above a city of 
 G
steel
            D         A
I've chosen bats over people
       D                  G       
'Cos I never did like the way 
           D     A
humans made me feel

       D                   A
So we sleep all day and we rise at 
night
       D                        
And we spread our wings and take 
          G
into the skies
             D                  
And when the people all stop and 
 A
stare
         D                     
And say, "Why you gotta be like 
 G
that?"
       D                        A 
I just look them in the eye and 
                        D      A
tell them I was raised by bats

           D            A
When I was young, I was feeble
       D                        
And it stung when they pushed me 
 G
down
         D              A
I was so hated by these people
       D             A            
That I knew I had to do what I 
                      D     A
could to get out of that town

     D                A
So I ran away to this sacred place
        D                          
And was taken in by creatures of 
  G
the night

Now when the people all stop and 
 A
stare
         D                         
And say, "Why you gotta dress like 
G
that?"
       D                        A 
I just look them in the eye and 
                        D
tell them I was raised by bats
         D                   A
When the people all stop and stare
         D                     
And say, "Why you gotta be like

that?"
       D                        A 
I just look them in the eye and 
                        D     A
tell them I was raised by bats

D                    A
Those dark days seem far away
     G          A
I've risen to a better place
   D              A               
So do like me, follow the dream 
   G
like that
     D                   A        
Just throw your old life away and 
              D
get raised by bats

      D                    A
So we sleep all day and we rise at 
night
       D                        
And we spread our wings and take 
          G
into the skies
         D                     A
We do it all our way, live our lives
 like that
             D                     
'Cos there's no one here to fill 
             G
our heads with lies

             D                  
And when the people all stop and 
 A
stare
         D                     
And say, "Why you gotta be like 
 G
that?"
         D                   A
When the people all stop and stare

And say, "Why you gotta be like 
 G
that?"
       D                           
I just punch them in the eye and I 
A
bite them on the thigh
      D                            
And I kick them in the ass where 
  G
the sun don't shine
  D                        A      
I look them in the eye and tell 
                   D     A
them I was raised by bats
       D                        A 
I just look them in the eye and 
                        D
tell them I was raised by bats
                G
I was raised by bats
             A  D
I was raised by bats
