[Verse 1]
B
C    G                            D
 The velveteen and oaken fixtures soothed the lonely child,
                                        Am
The parents watched the escort take him while they stood
outside.
    C                                G              D
The priest was kind and gentle as he positioned his head,
    Am            C
The pain was like brimstone,
        Bm         Em
but the kid hardly bled.

[Chorus]
C    G   D             Em
Victory, instinct over intellect.
C    G       D                 Em
Victory, it erupts from deep inside.
G       F# Em
History,   history is laughing at us,
D
Plotting its discovery.
Victory, victory,
C                    Em
Blame it on the victory.

[Verse 2]
B C Em B
C G                                    D
 Among the parade crowd there stands a decorated man
                             Am
Remembering how he helped to save this sacred land.
    C
His helpless enemy was wounded,
G                      D
both hands raised with hope.
   Am                 C                   Bm
He killed him without second thought with brute force and a
Em
rope.

[Chorus]
C    G   D             Em
Victory, instinct over intellect.
C    G       D                 Em
Victory, it erupts from deep inside.
G       F# Em
History,   history is laughing at us,
D
Plotting its discovery.
Victory, victory,
C                    Em
Blame it on the victory.
B C Em B C

[Bridge]
C
So many times,
D             Em       G D   C
so many lives test the other side
                        D            B    C
Waiting to see what the maker has in mind.

[Verse 3]
    G                          D
The unsuspecting commoners hum diligent each day,
They wallow in their father's sins,
   Am
as time passes away.
    C                                  G
The crimes are without motive but they ignore all
  D
restraint,
    Am          C                Bm            Em
The evil sits inside them torpid timing it's escape.

[Chorus]
C    G   D             Em
Victory, instinct over intellect.
C    G       D                 Em
Victory, it erupts from deep inside.
G       F# Em
History,   history is laughing at us,
D
Plotting its discovery.
Victory, victory,
C                    Em
Blame it on the victory.
B C Em     B  C
      Victory.
Em
Plotting it's discovery.
B        C
Victory, victory,
Em                   B  C Em
Blame it on the victory.
