=======================================================

(1)

cover your eyes
                  (2)
the light is too bright 
     (3)                     (1)
your wise men, they tell you lies 
           (2)         (3)     (1)
and what's worse, they curse 
             (2)      (3)
but still, i love the bite 
      E              F#m
but flies are maybe marked men 
                  A
cause they're attracted to the light
         E
they realize
                       F#m
the night has come to baptize
               A (guitar pause)
and they will finally realize 
          E
(1)
and what's
      F#m
(2)
worse,
         A
   (3)       (1)
it hurts
          E
but still,
          F#m
     (2)
they love
     A (guitar restart)
the bite

    E                F#m
and i would like to die with you
              B              A 
i'd like to try but i'm not suicide
    E                F#m
and i would like to kill you
                B                A
but that would suit you fine i realize
            E              F#m
and i will not disgrace myself
            B             A
by chasing you around to pull you back
            E               F#m
and i will not give in and hit you when
            B                   A
before the fight begins and its okay 
          E   F#m
i'm over you
A         E   F#m
i'm over you 
A         E   F#m
i'm over you
A         E   F#m
i'm over you

(1)
cover your eyes
                   (stop)
the light is too bright
