[Preverse]
Em G C
When I was a child, I heard voices,
Am B7
Some would sing and some would scream.
Em G C
You soon find you have few choices,
Am Em
I learned the voices died with me.
[Verse 1]
Em G C
When I was a child I'd sit for hours,
Am C B7
Staring into open flames.
Em G C
Something in it had a power,
Am B7 Em
Could barely tear my eyes away.
[Chorus]
Em G C
All you have is your fire,
Em G B7
And the place you need to reach.
Em G C
Don't you ever, taaaame your demons,
Am B7 Em
Always keep them on a leash.
[Humming]
Em B7 C
Hmmm mmmh mhhh mhhhhmmmm
G B7 Em
Hmmm mmmh mhhh mhhhmmmm
[Verse 2]
Em G C
When i was 16 my senses fooled me,
Em G B7
Thought gasoline was on my clothes.
Em G C
I knew that something would always rule me,
Am B7 Em
I knew this sin was mine alone.
[Chorus]
Em G C
All you have is your fire,
Em G B7
And the place you need to reach.
Em G C
Don't you ever, taaaame your demons,
Am B7 Em
Always keep them on a leash.
[Verse 3]
Em G C
When I was a man I thought it ended,
Em G B7
Well I knew love's perfect ache
Em G C
But my peace has always depended,
Am B7 Em
on all the ashes in my way
[Chorus]
Em G C
All you have is your fire,
Em G B7
And the place you need to reach.
Em G C
Don't you ever, taaaame your demons,
Am B7 Em
Always keep them on a leash.
