I learned this off the radio
this is just pretty much chords
And I only spent about 10 minutes on it since the album version is different
from the radio supposedly

Chords(tune down 1/2 step)

verses B, A, E
Pre chorus 1  B, A, E
Chorus B, G, D, A, E, G
End of 1 and 2nd chorus's    A, B (I think)
Bridge(solo) E, G, A, B
Bridge 1(singing) E, G, A, B
Clean Chorus Arpeggiated B, G, D, A, E, E/G(322xxx)
The arpeggio's are kinda like this B chord
-------4------
-----------4--
---2----------
--------------
End this with distorted E and G Power chords
3rd chorus is just B, G, D, A
Outro is B, G, D, A chords with some wah solo thorughout
End with a A to G chord and slide down

Note Pre chorus 2 is the same chords with the other guitar playing B, A, E
notes on the B string.  Then a B octave on the 14 fret comes in and repeats
till the chorus.

Verse 1
The world is a vampire, sent to drain
secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
and what do i get, for my pain
betrayed desires, and ?????? so gain

Pre chorus 1
And even though i know, I suppose I'll show
All my ?cream and gold?, like a ?dolt?

chorus 1
Despite all my rage, I am still a rat in a cage
repeat
someone will say, what is lost will never be saved
repeat the first line

verse 2
now will make it, nothing but in ?in a hole?,
but can you fake it, for just one more show
and what do you want, i wanna change
and what do you got, when you feel the same

pre chorus 2
chorus 2
bridge(solo)

Bridge(singing)
tell me I'm the only one, tell me there is no other one
jesus wasn't always something
tell me I'm the chosen one, jesus wasn't always something for you

Chorus arpeggiated

chorus 3
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in
repeat 2 times
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage

Bridge 2
Tell me I'm the only one, tell me there is no other one
jesus wasn't always something for you

outro
And i still believe that I cannot be saved
repeat three times

Note:
remember I only took about ten minutes on this song, so there is bound to be
parts missing,  I doubt even that most people even have heard this song yet.
So this is just a filler tab till someone takes the time to tab it permanently.
