[Verse 1]
 E5
Feeding on the wrath of man,
 shot down, traumatic
 Time haunted by the past
 Long gone, dogmatic
 Although the die is cast
 Shot down, volcanic
 But what is gone is gone and done
 Look back, psychotic
                            G5
 No chance before this life began
 D5   E5   Bb5   A5   G5

[Pre-Chorus]
E5   F5   G5   F5   E5
                         Staring
                     E5
into black light
  F5   G5   F5   E5
E5   F5   G5   F5   E5
                         Dominating
              E5   F5   G5
 birthright

[Chorus]
  G5   D5    E5
Wrath  of   man
 Bb5        A5   G5     E5
Leaching through,    split in two
  G5   D5    E5
Wrath  of   man
  Bb5    A5   G5
Crash into
 E5
Point of view
  G5   D5    E5
Wrath  of   man
 Bb5   A5   G5   E5
Vio---lence,  inheritance
  G5   D5    E5
Wrath  of   man
   Bb5   A5  G5
Thrive upon
 Bb5    A5  G5
Feeding on
          Bb5  A5    G5   E5
Seventy-two   sea---sons gone

How to play 72 Seasons: key, chords and progression

These are 72 Seasons chords by Metallica on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

72 Seasons by Metallica is centred on A major (three sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯). The song uses 6 chords: D5, E5, Bb5, A5, G5 and F5.

Most of the song cycles through E5 – Bb5 – A5 – G5 (V – ♭II – I – ♭VII in A major). Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: on guitar, Bb5 and F5 need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
