The Great Unwanted

[Intro]  E  C#m  A  B

   E           C#m                A               B
If I could be alone with you, instead of standing on my own
       G#m                           C#m                          A
I would sound the call and when they all come running then you'll see
          B
I'm not alone at all

   E          C#m          A           B
Oh we live in silence, in shelter, in shadows
    E             C#m          A              B
The ones that you trod on, the ones you were brutal to, but

A                        B                  G#m                    A
Look for us, we were the casualties forever paying the price for a life less boring
A                        B                     G#m A
Look for us, we were the whipping children, but no more
A                           B
Look for us 'cause when the tables turn
          G#m                    A
You'll be saying a prayer to the great unwanted

A7M                   G#m
Singing a hymn to the great unwanted
B                A
We will not be ignored
B                     E
We won't take that no more

( E  C#m  A  B )

         E                   C#m                     A              B
You can dodge the pressure, avoid the questions and whisper lies beneath your breath
       G#m                       C#m                       A                B
To you: love got smothered under hearts and flowers and it died a sweet and sickly death

    E           C#m               A            B
But our resolve won't break, the stakes are to high to lose
        E               C#m          A           B
You're finished, you're over, you're yesterday's news, so

A                        B                  G#m                    A
Look for us, we were the casualties forever paying the price for a life less boring
A                        B                     G#m A
Look for us, we were the whipping children, but no more
A                           B
Look for us 'cause when the tables turn
          G#m                    A
You'll be saying a prayer to the great unwanted

A7M                   G#m
Singing a hymn to the great unwanted
B                A
We will not be ignored
B                     C#m
We won't take that no more
   A        C#m    A
No more, no more

        A                  B                  G#m                A
You can roll your eyes and feign surprise but this ain't another spurned lover talking
A             B               G#m                         A
Every day you waste away is a little bit closer 'till the dead start walking
A                      B
Curse yourself into an early grave
      G#m                     C#m
Well, it's your party you can die if you want to
A                   A                   A
Die if you want to, die if you want to, die if you want to
B
Enough now, let's go

[Solo]  A  B  G#m  A

A                        B                   G#m                    A
Look for us, we were the casualties, forever paying the price for a life less boring
A                         B                G#m                     A
Look for us, we spent the weekend quaking, dreading the sight of a Monday morning
A                           B
Look for us 'cause when the tables turn
          G#m                    A
You'll be saying a prayer to the great unwanted

A                     B               G#m                     A
Singing a hymn to the great unwanted, saying a prayer to the great unwanted
A                     B
Singing a hymn to the great unwanted
    G#m              C#m
And we will not be ignored
