(Chorus)
(G)   May you turn, (D) may you turn (Bm) may you turn, (C) may you turn

There's hate in your eyes, I've seen it before

Planning destruction behind the locked door

Were you the coward who fired the last shot
(Chorus)
May you rot (6X) in your grave, New World

****Instrumental Break**** (NOTE: I have tried to tab this out for guitar, It's mainly a mellotron I think, but

this transcription sounds good enough)

There's death in the air, lights growing dim

And those who survive sing a desperate him

If god grants you one final request

(Chorus)

May you rest (6X), in your grave, New World
