Standard Tuning
[Intro] F#m C#7 D A C#7 F#m x2
[Verses]
F#m C#7 D
When I was a child, I heard voices...
F#m D C#7
Some would sing and some would scream
F#m C#7 D
You soon find you have few choices...
F#m D C#7
I learned the voices died with me
F#m C#7 D
When I was a child I'd sit for hours
F#m D C#7
Staring into open flame
F#m C#7 D
Something in it had a power,
F#m D C#7
Could barely tear my eyes away
F#m C#7 D
All you have is your fire...
F#m D C#7
And the place you need to reach -
F#m C#7 D
Don't you ever, tame your demon
D7 C#7 F#m
But always keep 'em on a leash
Intro: x1
F#m C#7 D
When I was 16 my senses fooled me
F#m D C#7
Thought gasoline was on my clothes
F#m C#7 D
I knew that something would always rule me...
F#m D C#7
I knew the scent was mine alone
F#m C#7 D
All you have is your fire...
F#m D C#7
And the place you need to reach -
F#m C#7 D
Don't you ever, tame your demon
D7 C#7 F#m
But always keep 'em on a leash
F#m C#7 D
When I was a man I thought it ended
F#m D C#7
When I knew loves perfect ache
F#m C#7 D
But my peace has always depended
F#m D C#7
On all the ashes in my way
F#m C#7 D
All you have is your fire...
F#m D C#7
And the place you need to reach -
F#m C#7 D
Don't you ever, tame your demon
D7 C#7 F#m
But always keep 'em on a leash
Hope you enjoy
