[Intro]
D5 Eb5
D5
  Go

[Verse 1]
D5 Eb5 F5 Eb5
       A____bolition to
             Eb5
This illusion
And all the
Monuments
       F5 Eb5
Of hypocrisy 

[Pre-Chorus]
D5
  Burn them, burn
Them to the ground
Destroy them, they're
Useless to us now

[Verse 2]
D5
Tear down reminders
Of a crownless king
Eb5
This impostor
              F5 Eb5
Claims authority
D5
Indignation is closing in
    Eb5
You choose a war,
                 F5 Eb5
A war you cannot win

[Pre-Chorus]
D5
  No one, no one
Can save you now
Cast down where
No mercy can be found
No willingness to bow
To a king without a crown
Where the virtuous
Can't be found

[Chorus]
  Bb      F6/A
Defy you, to  the
Bb
Depths you descend
C   Dm      C
I defy you, to
    Dm             C
The death we defend
  Bb           F6/A
Defy you, your rule
     Bb
Will come to an end
C   Dm      C
I defy you, you've
  Dm                 D5
Become the crownless king

[Verse 3]
                  Eb5
The penitent pray for
the downfall of your
        F5   Eb5
Of your reign
    D5
The warrior soul shall break
         Eb5
the hold of constraints
                    F5 Eb5
In the end you will suffer

[Chorus]
  Bb      F6/A
Defy you, to  the
Bb
Depths you descend
C   Dm      C
I defy you, to
    Dm             C
The death we defend
  Bb           F6/A
Defy you, your rule
     Bb
Will come to an end
C   Dm      C
I defy you, you've
  Dm                 D5  Eb5 Gb5
Become the crownless king

[Bridge]
D5 Eb5 Ab5 D5 Eb5 Gb5
D5 Eb5
      Yeah
     D5 Eb5            Gb5
This storied confusion,
   D5     Eb5        Ab5
Distorted and diluted
     D5   Eb5
Will come undone
         Gb5     D5    Eb5
When the balance shifts
And the framework
D5     Eb5 Gb5 D5 Eb5 Ab5 D5  Eb5 Gb5
Breaks,                   yeah
    D5   Eb5
The framework breaks
D5   Eb5    Gb5
Yeah,   yeah
D5 Eb5 Ab5 D5 Eb5 Gb5 D5 Eb5

[Outro]
Bb             F6/A
  To the depths
Bb         C
You descend
Dm       C
  Become the
Dm            C
Crownless king
  Bb     F6/A
Defy you,
Bb  C Dm    C
  I defy you
Dm C  Bb     F6/A
    Defy you,
Bb   C Dm    C Dm C
  We defy you
