Verse 1:
       G          D
We've got nothing to fear...but fear itself?
Bb                 G    D
Not pain, not failure, not fatal tragedy?
Bb              G      D
Not the faulty units in this mad machinery?
Bb               G     D
Not the broken contacts in emotional chemistry?
     Am       Em
With an iron fist in a velvet glove
     C
We are sheltered under the gun
     Am        Em
In the glory game on the power train
 C           Am | Em | C | C |
Thy kingdom's will be done

      Eb      F     Eb      C  Bb G     | G |
And the things that we fear are a weapon to be held a - gainst us

Chorus:
   D
He's not afraid of your judgment
       Am
He knows of horrors worse than your Hell
     G

      Am     G       F  | E | D | D |
But he's a lot more afraid of your lying

Verse 2:
     G        D
Can any part of life be larger than life?
Bb              G  D
Even love must be limited by time
  Bb                   G    D
And those who push us down that they might climb
  Bb                G   D
Is any killer worth more than his crime?
    Am        Em
Like a steely blade in a silken sheath
  C
We don't see what they're made of
    Am            Em
They shout about love, but when push comes to shove
 C                   Am | Em | C | C |
They live for the things they're afraid of

     Eb        F     Eb      C  Bb G     | G |
And the knowledge that they fear is a weapon to be used a - gainst them
