C#m B
Empty bottles on a dusty wooden floor
F#m C#m
A remedy I've tried too many times
C#m B
Echos in my mind of shouts and slamming doors
F#m C#m
I've done better with goodbye
C#m B
Now the sun is heading back into its grave
F#m C#m
It's a cold october night
C#m B
Taste the autumn air and hope to find a way
F#m C#m
To keep the dark out of my mind
A
Kerosene
C#m
Kerosene
C#m
She lit me up
B
She left me numb
A E
I call her kerosene
( 2x)
C#m B
Light a candle as I lay me down to sleep
F#m C#m
Watch the room begin to glow
C#m B
Listen quietly to wind and rustling leaves
F#m C#m
In the silence I'm at home
C#m B
In my dreams I see her standing by the fire
F#m C#m
Granite eyes reflect the flames
C#m B
Humming softly till the embers start to tire
F#m C#m
A faded memory that I saved
A
Kerosene
C#m
Kerosene
C#m
She lit me up
B
She left me numb
A E
I call her kerosene
-humming-
A
Kerosene

Kerosene
C#m
She lit me up
B
She left me numb
A E
I call her kerosene
