Avenged Sevenfold – Bat Country (Guitar Chords & Lyrics)

Intro:
 Dm F Dm Dm
 Dm F Dm Dm

Verse:
 Dm      F         G     Bb     Dm     F      G      Bb
 Caught here in a fiery blaze, won’t lose my will to stay.
 Dm         F        Dm                    Dm
 I tri-i-i-i-i-ied to drive all through the night,
 Dm                     F        Dm           Dm
 the heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights.
 Dm   F     G     Bb        Dm      G       F         E7
 No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me.

 Dm                        G           F
 Can’t you help me as I’m startin’ to burn (all alone).
 C                       F               G
 Too many doses and I’m starting to get an attraction.
 Dm                        G         F
 My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
 C                           F               G
 No one can save me and you know I don’t want the attention.

Verse:
 Dm        F     Dm            Dm
 As I-I-I-I-I-I adjust to my new sights
 Dm            F          Dm            Dm
 the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights.
 Dm                F        Dm        Dm
 My hand is on the trigger I’m ready to ignite.
 Dm              F            Dm              Dm
 Tomorrow might not make it but everything’s all right.
 Dm      F       G      Bb   Dm      G        F       E7
 Mental fiction, follow me; show me what it’s like to be set free.

Chorus:
 Dm                        G           F
 Can’t you help me as I’m startin’ to burn (all alone).
 C                       F               G
 Too many doses and I’m starting to get an attraction.
 Dm                        G         F
 My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).

 No one can save me and you know I don’t want the attention.

Bridge:
 Dm     G               C     E7        Am               G             F
 Soooo sorry you’re not here I’ve been sane too long my vision’s so unclear.
 Dm   G                C      E7        Am             G                    F
 Now take a trip with me but don’t be surprised when things aren’t what they seem.
 Dm      F         G      Bb    Dm     F      G       Bb
 Caught here in a fiery blaze, won’t lose my will to stay.

 These eyes won’t see the same, after I flip today.

[Solo...]

Dm                F       Dm               Dm
 Sometimes I don’t know why we’d rather live than die,
 Dm                 F      Dm               Dm
 we look up towards the sky for answers to our lives.
 Dm                 F       Dm               Dm
 We may get some solutions but most just pass us by,
 Dm            F           Dm              Dm
 don’t want your absolution cause I can’t make it right.
 F             C               Dm     F          C               Bb      E7
 I’ll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man.

Chorus:
 Dm                        G           F
 Can’t you help me as I’m startin’ to burn (all alone).
 C                       F               G
 Too many doses and I’m starting to get an attraction.
 Dm                        G         F
 My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
 C                           F               G
 No one can save me and you know I don’t want the attention.

Outro:
 Dm     G               C     E7        Am               G             F
 Soooo sorry you’re not here I’ve been sane too long my vision’s so unclear.
 Dm   G                C      E7        Am             G                    F
 Now take a trip with me but don’t be surprised when things aren’t what they seem.
 Dm    G                 C     E7        Am              G                F
 I’ve known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart.
 Dm          G             C   E7        Am              G                F
 Scared but you can follow me I’m too weird to live but much too rare to die.
