1. In this age of the thunder and rage,

C F

can you feel the ground move round your feet ?

G F

If you take one step closer, it’ll lead to another,

C F

the crossroad above is where we meet.

G F

I shout out for shelter, I need you for something,

C F

the whole world is out, they’re all on the street.

D# F

Control yourself, love is all you need,

D# G

control yourself, in your eyes.

Sanctify yourself, sanctify, be a part of me, sanctify, sanctify yourself !

G C G

sanctify, sanctify yourself, set yourself free !

2. In pictures of living, in bloodshot a vision,

C F

sweet miracles and strange circumstances,

G F

I see the sun up, the showdown, the cool winds that blow down,

C F

on the big beat that life-long romance is.

G F

You’ve got a gun in your hand, you’re making self plans,

C F

stay with me all through the night.

D# F

Control yourself, love is all you need,

D# G

control yourself, open up your heart.

C G C G C

Sanctify yourself, sanctify, be a part of me, sanctify, sanctify yourself !

sanctify, sanctify yourself, set yourself free !

3. You can’t stop the world for a boy or a girl,

C F

sweet victims of poor circumstances,

G F

but you can pour back the love, sweeping down from above.

C F

giving hope and making more chances.

G F

Well, I hope and I pray that maybe someday

C F

you’ll come back down here and show me the way.

D# F

Control yourself, love is all you need,

D# G

control yourself, open up your heart !
