[Pre-verse]
 
Em
 When I was a child, I heard voices,
Em                              B7
 Some would sing and some would scream.
Em
 You soon find you have few choices,
Em             B7                Em
 I learned the voices died with me.
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Em                               C
 When I was a child, I'd sit for hours,
Am                 B7
 Staring into open flame.
Em                     C
 Something in it had a power,
Am            B7              Em
 Could barely tear my eyes away.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                   C   Em
 All you have is your fire,
Em                            B7
 And the place you need to reach.
Em         G6  C          Em
 Don't you ever tame your demons,
Em          B7                Em
 But always keep 'em on a leash.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Em      B7        C
  Hmmm mmmh mhhh mhhhhmmmm
G       B7        Em
  Hmmm mmmh mhhh mhhhmmmm
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em                 G6     C
 When I was 16, my senses fooled me
Am            C                  B7
 Thought gasoline was on my clothes
Em                           G6     C
 I knew that something would always rule me,
Am           B7               Em
 I knew this sin was mine alone.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                   C   Em
 All you have is your fire,
Em                            B7
 And the place you need to reach.
Em         G6  C          Em
 Don't you ever tame your demons,
Em          B7                Em
 But always keep 'em on a leash.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
Em            B7               C
 When I was a man I thought it ended,
G6      Am                  Em
 When I knew love's perfect ache.
Em                B7        C
 But my peace has always depended
G6          Am             Em
 On all the ashes in my wake.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                   C   Em
 All you have is your fire,
Em                            B7
 And the place you need to reach.
Em         G6  C          Em
 Don't you ever tame your demons,
Em          B7                Em
 But always keep 'em on a leash.
