Cage The Elephant - Lotus: chords

Woke before the morning sun
I found it tucked beneath the hills
I sat and watched it rise
It hit the sky and burst to flames
The lotus flower's
Got me thinking bout the way that we live
I've got this feeling
It's gonna stop

C#m
Driven by religion
Running backwards down a one way road
A course collision, split decision
Trying to save your soul
Manifest Destiny
Is just a fancy word for murder
I've got this feeling
It's gonna stop

Chorus:
D                        A
A billion faces running round my head
D                          A
All got opinions but they don't mean shit
D                               A
Keep dropping bombs until the whole world's dead
               D                      A
They said it's all been done and it's all been said
D                                 A
They'll turn this message into a pop movement
D                             A
A fashion statement, call it politics
D                                     A
You can mark my words they'll put a spin on it
              D         A
They say it's all been done

Look outside the box my friend
You heart's been dead since who knows when
It seems we've missed the mark
Lost all hope and given in
Pack up the suitcase
Take that handkerchief and wipe off your chin
The fear that drives you
Needs to be stopped

Chorus

Fell into a daze
And found my mind was gone and laid to waste
A battle ground indeed
Where holy wars have taken place
I saw the sun set watched it travel down
And tear through the ground
The hate that drives us
Needs to be stopped
