Young Volcanoes / Fall Out Boy

Right, this is my feeble attempt to figure this song out because I just HAD to 
learn how to play it =D, and Ive seen a couple of youtube videos that seemed to 
have the gist so I thought why not, Ill give it a try =P 

Im not at all 100% sure that this is how FOB play it, but it sounds kinda similar 
to the song I think =)

Capo 2nd fret (all finger positions and chord names are relative to capo)

Chords used (you can leave out the lowest bass note on the barre chords if you 
want, it may sound better to you. I guess its all about preference really =P)

e|--0----1-----0----3-----3--|
B|--1----1-----1----3-----3--|
G|--0----2-----2----4-----0--|
D|--2----3-----2----5-or--0--|
A|--3----3-----0----5-----2--|
E|-------1----------3-----3--|
    C    F     Am   G 
The G chord sounds good either way, its your choice again =)

Verse 1
      C         F
When Rome's in ruins
Am           G  
We are the lions 
C          F         Am    G
Free of the coliseums. 

   C          F
In poison places, 
   Am          G
We are anti-venom,

We're the beginning of the end 

Pre-chorus
   C                        G
Tonight the foxes hunt the hounds, 
                   Am                  F
And it's all over now before it has begun,
F (strum once, let ring) 
We've already won. 

Chorus
C    Am  F   C                   Am   F
We are wild, we are like young volcanoes

We are wild, Americana, exotica 
Am                         F
Do you wanna feel a little beautiful baby? Yeah! 

Post-chorus C F Am G x2

Verse 2 
Come on 
C        F        Am         G
Make it easy, say I never mattered

Run it up the flagpole 
C         F       Am          G              C
We will teach you how to make boys next door
F            Am   G 
Out of assholes 
(Ha Ha) 

Pre-chorus

And it's all over now before it has begun,
 
We've already won.
