[Verse 1]
C#sus4                          C#
I need a dream where I can live what I said
C#sus4                          C#
I need a place where I can make my bed
C#sus4                            C#
I need a hole where I'll find darkness now
           C#sus4                        C#
And if you hassle me mister I might just lose my head

[Chorus]
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost there
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost dead
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost there
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost dead

[Verse 2]
C#sus4              C#
They came home on Saturday night
C#sus4                           C#
They killed a cat and they raped his wife
C#sus4                           C#
And in their eyes there was fear and hate
C#sus4                          C#
And when they spoke, they spoke with knives

[Chorus]
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost there
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost dead
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost there
G#                      B
Five minutes and you're almost dead

[Verse 3]
D#                     F#
Some say that I should hate them all
C#                      E
But I say that wouldn't help at all
B                       D#
I just wanna find those guys, that's all
B                       D#
I just wanna find those guys, that's all

[Verse 4]
C#sus4                               C#
The night time comes and the streets they ring
C#sus4                  C#
With the fears of a thousand things
C#sus4                            C#

You'll never get nothing done at all
