D#               Bm              Gm                F

which you'll need if no one's going to visit you

D#   {stagger through}    Bm   D#

Animal, [fucking animal]

[Riff #3]-till end

i know who you're waiting for

no one's coming though

[ D# B  Gm F]-till end

and fuck whatever made me

perhaps you think i'm evil

perhaps you think i'm crazy
