            [Intro]
Am

[Refrain]
              G
The city's on fire
                  F
The streets are a riot
                        G
Now look at this place, no one is safe
Em                  Am
No one is safe from you

[Verse 1]
Am                                           G
So beautiful, she knew it every single day - Got a smile that left him right around the way
F                                                    G
Yeah, makes you feel good, wondering why she stays - So afraid, afraid of you
Am                                      G
She needs a sedative to get a strain - You know she needs a cigarette, she got the shakes
F                                          G
Put them sunglasses on to hide her face - Such a waste, a waste on you
Am                             G
    Tell me, why you ashamed - Too scared to run away
F                      G                         Am
You love him anyway - Surviving just on the pain

[Refrain]
    Am
The city's on fire
     G
The streets are a riot
     F                   G
Now look at this place, no one is safe
     Em                Am
No one is safe from you
     Am
Oh, look what you've started (started)
     G
It's a history of violence (violence)
     F                    G
Now look at your face, no one is safe
    Em              Am
No one is safe from you

[Verse 2]
Am                            G
Maybe the way out is a .38 - God gave her a sign, not a moment late
F                                                   G
Tonight she's gonna point it at his fucking face - Bang bang, he's blown away
Am                          G
Tell me, why you ashamed? Too scared to run away
F                      G
You love him anyway - Surviving just on the pain
Am                               G
Tell me where she went wrong - She is sadness in every song
F                                       G                             Am
She knows someday that she'll be gone - Until then, please stay strong

[Refrain]
    Am
The city's on fire

No one is safe from you
     Am
Oh, look what you've started (started)
     G
It's a history of violence (violence)
     F                  G
Now look at your face, no one is safe
   Em           Am
No one is safe from you

[Verse 3]
Am
Still in shock from the Blast, sure the neighbors heard it
G
Now or never, crossed a man that wasn't worth it
F
No regrets from what the judge called a bad decision
G
Now she's doing 20 years in a woman's prison
Am
Yeah, she'll never have her life - will she feel it all?
G
She'll never know what it's like not to feel alone
F                                      G
No kids will love her unconditional - no cure for a sickness that's medicinal
Spoken
Am
She's flying high in her cell she can finally breathe
G
She's flying high outta hell, now she finally free
F                                               G
Man, he fed her to the lions, that monster he promised her diamonds for silence
                            Am
It's the history of violence!

[Refrain]
    Am
The city's on fire

    Em           Am
No one is safe from you
     Am
Oh, look what you've started (started)
     G
It's a history of violence (violence)
     F                    G
Now look at your face, no one is safe
    Em              Am
No one is safe from you

[Outro]
    F                    G
Now look at your face, no one is safe
    Em              Am
No one is safe from you
     Am
Oh, look what you've started (started)
     G
It's a history of violence (violence)
