Em G A

[Verse]

Em                                 A7
Born is a human with a kung fu spine
Em                                           A7
Equipped with a detector of what's on your mind
       Em                       A7
You jive you shuck you bob you weave
       Em
And when you're down you've got
                 A7
something up your sleeve
    Em                                A7
And you've got it good as bad as it gets
    Em                                            A7
You make your own incisions that come with regrets
          Em                                          A7
You're in it to win it and make every minute count
       Em                                   A7
You put it all together and dish it out

[Chorus]

E A    D7                          E
Hey I know where you're from
                                     G        A
It makes it that much nicer to meet you
E A     D7                           E
Hey I know what you've done
                                   G               A
It makes it that much better to defeat you

[Interlude]

Em G A
Em G A

[Verse 2]

Em                          A7
All that knowledge all those skills
Em                                           A7
All the gas it takes to get up top of the hill
Em                                        A7
And while the other try to take your spot
         Em                                                 A7
You want to make them stop but you gotta make them stop
                   Em                    A7
Would you do anything whatever it takes
Em                              A7
Jacks in the road yeah fix the breaks
                Em                                    A7
It's the instinct that's got us locked up tight
                     Em                                         A7
And it's the madness that's keeping us up all night

[Chorus 2]

[Solo]

Em A7
Em A7
Em A7
Em A7

[Bridge]

     G      A  E  D
It's what we are

It's what we are

[Verse 3]

Em                               A7
Born is a human with mechanics to win
Em                               A7
Born is machine with a human tucked in
Em                               A7
You jive you shuck you jab you stick
            Em                                        A7
You're calling out for help when it gets too thick
         Em                       A7
Your honor your honor its not me
              Em                            A7
It's the invisible visible evil powers that be
   Em                            A7
Untraceable insatiable having to feed
               Em                                                  A7
Yeah you cry when your wounded and you laugh when they bleed

[Chorus 3]
