Raised By Bats(Chords)

	        

        D            A 
Here at home in this steeple 
        D                       G 
Made of chrome, above a city of steel 
            D         A 
I've chosen bats over people 
       D                  G                  D     A 
'Cos I never did like the way humans made me feel 

       D                   A 
So we sleep all day and we rise at night 
       D                                  G 
And we spread our wings and take into the skies 
             D                   A 
And when the people all stop and stare 
         D                      G 
And say, 'Why you gotta be like that?' 
       D                        A                         D      A 
I just look them in the eye and tell them I was raised by bats 

           D            A 
When I was young, I was feeble 
       D                         G 
And it stung when they pushed me down 
         D              A 
I was so hated by these people 
       D             A                                  D     A 
That I knew I had to do what I could to get out of that town 

     D                A 
So I ran away to this sacred place 
        D                            G 
And was taken in by creatures of the night 
              D                  A 
Now when the people all stop and stare 
         D                         G 
And say, 'Why you gotta dress like that?' 
       D                        A                         D 
I just look them in the eye and tell them I was raised by bats 
         D                   A 
When the people all stop and stare 
         D                      G 
And say, 'Why you gotta be like that?' 
       D                        A                         D     A 
I just look them in the eye and tell them I was raised by bats 

D                    A 
Those dark days seem far away 
     G          A 
I've risen to a better place 
   D              A                  G 
So do like me, follow the dream like that 
     D                   A                      D 
Just throw your old life away and get raised by bats

      D                    A 
So we sleep all day and we rise at night 
       D                                  G 
And we spread our wings and take into the skies 
         D                     A 
We do it all our way, live our lives like that 
             D                                  G 
'Cos there's no one here to fill our heads with lies 

             D                   A 
And when the people all stop and stare 
         D                      G 
And say, 'Why you gotta be like that?' 
         D                   A 
When the people all stop and stare 
         D                         G 
And say, 'Why you gotta dress like that?' 
         D                   A 
When the people all stop and stare 
         D                      G 
And say, 'Why you gotta be like that?' 
       D                           A 
I just punch them in the eye and I bite them on the thigh 
      D                              G 
And I kick them in the ass where the sun don't shine 
  D                        A                         D     A 
I look them in the eye and tell them I was raised by bats 
       D                        A                         D 
I just look them in the eye and tell them I was raised by bats 
                G 
I was raised by bats 
             A  D 
I was raised by bats
