(Dr. Horrible)
Bm intro
 
Bm
Any dolt with half a brain
Can see that human kind has gone insane
To the point where i don't know
If I'll upset the status quo
If I throw poison in the water main.
 
G               Bm
Listen close to everybody's heart
 
G                      Bm
And hear that breaking sound
 
G                    Bm
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
 
    F#m             A
And crashing to the ground.
 
 
Bm                  G
I cannot believe my eyes
 
Bm                          A         G
How the world's filled with filth and lies
 
         Bm       A
But it's plain to see
 
       E/G#       G          Bm
Evil inside of me  is on the rise.
 
(Penny)
 
D
Look around
We're living with the lost and found.
Just when you feel you've almost drowned
You find yourself on solid ground
 
          Em                    Bm
And you believe there's good in everybody's heart
 
Em               Bm
Keep it safe and sound.
 
Em        Bm
With hope you can do your part
 
   A
To turn a life around
 
D                   G
I cannot believe my eyes
 
D                    A       G
Is the world finally growing wise?
 
Bm                 A
Cause it seems to me
 
             E/G#    G          Bm
Some kind of harmony  is on the rise.
 
(Both: Dr Horrible first line, Penny second)
 
D
Anyone with half a brain
Take        it     slow
 
D
            Could spend their whole life howling in pain
(He looks at me and seems                         to know)
 
D
                    Cause the dark is everywhere And Penny doesn't seem to care
(The things that I'm afraid                       to show           And suddenly)
 
D
That soon the dark in me is all that will remain
(I feel                                 this glow)
 
         Em                   Bm
         Listen close to      everybody's heart
(And I believe there's good in everybody's heart)
 
    Em                 Bm
And hear that breaking sound
    (Keep it safe   and sound)
 
Em                   Bm
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
    (With hope you can     do your part)
 
F#                  A
And crashing to the ground.
    (To turn a life around.)
 
D                   G
I cannot believe my eyes
(I cannot believe my eyes)
 
D                           A         G
How the world's filled with filth and lies
(How the world's finally     growing   wise)
 
         Bm                       A
But it's plain to see
              ( And it's plain to see)
 
        E/G#             G
Evil inside of me
      (Rapture inside of me)
 
          Bm
is on the rise...
(is on the rise...)
