Chorus]
     E     F#    G#m
Just close your eyes
            B        F#
We're gonna run this light
   E    F#   G#m
We live our lives
                B       F#
Yeah, we're not wasting time
         E        F#    G#m
Baby, we lost our minds
                       B
We're gonna get, gonna get
         F#     
Get what we can
          E        F#       G#m
We're not doing it for the money, doing it for the money
B                      F#
Doing it for the money, doing it for the money


[Verse 1]
C#madd9
      Is it wrong to rock the booze
C#madd9
      We gotta strike a match and light the fuse
C#madd9
      Now I'm never looking back
C#madd9
      It's time to leave the future with the past


[Pre-Chorus]
                  E
I said it doesn't matter where I go
G#m                   C#m
I am calling all the poets in the battle
B                    E
I am shouting to the world
                   G#m 
Let them know that we won't
             N.C.  
Be afraid to step into the fight when you can't see the light


[Chorus]
    E     F#    G#m
So, close your eyes
            B        F#
We're gonna run this light
   E    F#   G#m
We live our lives
                B       F#
Yeah, we're not wasting time
         E        F#    G#m
Baby, we lost our minds
                       B
We're gonna get, gonna get
         F#     
Get what we can
          E        F#       G#m
We're not doing it for the money, doing it for the money
B                      F#
Doing it for the money, doing it for the money


[Verse 2]
C#madd9
      But if you're down I'm a soldier up
C#madd9
      You better learn to shoot or learn to duck
C#madd9
      There's no retreat and no escape
C#madd9
      If we can dream then why are we wide awake?


[Pre-chorus]
          E                        
I said it doesn't matter where I go
G#m                   C#m
I am calling all the prophets into the battle
B                   E              
I am never going to change who I am
G#m                     C#m                      B    
I won't bend under the pressure when my back's on the ropes
                  E                
I said it doesn't matter where I go
G#m                    C#m             
I am staring down the barrel of a gun
B                      E
We are shouting to the world
                   G#m
Let them know that we are
              N.C.
Not afraid to step into the fight when we can't see the light


[Chorus]
    E     F#    G#m
So, close your eyes
            B        F#
We're gonna run this light
   E    F#   G#m
We live our lives
                B       F#
Yeah, we're not wasting time
         E        F#    G#m
Baby, we lost our minds
                       B
We're gonna get, gonna get
         F#     
Get what we can
          E        F#       G#m
We're not doing it for the money, doing it for the money
B                      F#
Doing it for the money, doing it for the money


[Bridge]
A                     C#m                G#m
 Well it's a silicone rush and I'm addicted
                     A
I don't understand it
           E      F#m         A
The winner starts kill switch
                     C#m
Saying what I want to
                              G#m
The pleasure comes with pain too
                      A
Mostly it's another fight
                 E      F#m        A    E - F#m
When it's slowly coming after you


[Chorus]
    E     F#    G#m
So, close your eyes
            B        F#
We're gonna run this light
   E    F#   G#m
We live our lives
                B       F#
Yeah, we're not wasting time
         E        F#    G#m
Baby, we lost our minds
                       B
We're gonna get, gonna get
         F#     
Get what we can
          E        F#       G#m
We're not doing it for the money, doing it for the money
B                      F#
Doing it for the money, doing it for the money
