Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Nobody  makes noise to make the Earth move  any more
Uneasy  line in a shadow groove, can you  ask for more?
I'm  just as hungry as I was  before
And  no one's gonna remember your name  when you're gone.
Gonna  find another pretty diva with  a new song.
Two  more if you're lucky you could last  so long.
Have  this, reflect your  time
And  show it off until  your back goes out, and keep sharp eyed
I'm  gonna tell you not to let  your guard down
Your  work is done, let's go out, don't come here,  not next door
They  might not care what you were listening to last year,  now they're bored
I'm  just as hungry as I was  before
I'll  best reflect your time
And  show it off until  your back goes out, and keep sharp eyes
I  thought I told you not to let  your guard down, reflect your time
And  show it off until  your back goes out, and keep sharp eyed
I  thought I told you not to let  your guard down.
How  can you  spend your past  you can't pretend
I  see you still begging  on the scraps  on the floor
They'll  never lie, they won't  take the time to get by  and then you will
They're  going nowhere but they won't  stop trying and we're swallowing  the decibels
They're  going nowhere but we won't  stop trying and we're swallowing  the decibels  (x12)
