Rocking The Boat

[Intro]

Shark
A#5 B5 A#5 B5
G5

[Verse 1]
F#5   B5
   We all know the place that appears so sublime
           G5
But if you dive a little deeper,
               F#5
you'll hit the real bottom line
    B5
The head of the town is out there flashing his teeth
           G5                                      F#5
A telltale sign about to surface that there's a monster
             B5
lurking underneath

[Pre-Chorus]
                   G5
They're thrashing around but found
     F#5                   B5
They can't contain the leak
                 G5
Cause I've got a fish to fry
F#5
That's feeding on the weak
G5                                       F#5
  So cast a line for every life they took
                     B5
It's time to set the hook

[Chorus]
               D5            A5           F#5
We're all just floating in a shallow grave
Are we buoyed by the blood of the masses
G5                    F#5
They'd rather sell out   instead of save
B5             D5                  A5            F#5
  We're all so starving that we've taken the bait
You think we would've learned from the past that
    G5                F#5
The predator will soon   become the prey

[Main Riff]
B5 A#5 B5 A#5   B5
             We all know a place

[Verse 2]
Where the calm flees at night
    G5
And safe is just a shadow
      F#5
So we swim towards the light
        B5
If this voyage of valor put us on deck for death
              G5
We'll compare scars with each other
          F#5
Until our very last breath, yeah!

[Pre-Chorus]
B5                   G5
  They're thrashing around but found
     F#5                   B5
They can't contain the leak
                 G5
Cause I've got a fish to fry
F#5
That's feeding on the weak
G5                                       F#5
  Reel it in with every trick in the book
                     B5
It's time to set the hook

[Chorus]
               D5            A5           F#5
We're all just floating in a shallow grave
Are we buoyed by the blood of the masses
G5                    F#5
They'd rather sell out   instead of save
B5             D5                  A5            F#5
  We're all so starving that we've taken the bait
You think we would've learned from the past that
    G5                F#5
The predator will soon   become the prey

[Bridge]
B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5
B5 C5     B5        C5
     Last chance to make amends
So try to stay afloat
     B5          C5
With sharks like you among us
We'll need a bigger boat
B5      C5
Sold us down the river
So the rich could stay rich
    B5         C5
But now you've been caught
                       B5   C5
So smile, you son of a bitch

[Breakdown]
B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5
B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5 B5 C5
B5     C5            B5  C5       B5       C5 B5
Sinking  with the burning  embers Should be  any
C5   B5  C5     B5
 sign  of  doubt
C5 B5   C5       B5 C5     B5 C5   B5 C5   B5  C5      B5
   That this tale   will be   remem__bered And the tide
C5      B5 C5
will fore_ver
B5 C5  B5 C5  B5 C5 B5               D5            A5
  flush   them   out  We're all just floating in a shallow
     F#5
grave

[Chorus]
Are we buoyed by the blood of the masses
G5                    F#5
They'd rather sell out   instead of save
B5             D5                  A5            F#5
  We're all so starving that we've taken the bait
You think we would've learned from the past that
    G5                F#5               B5
The predator will soon   become the prey
