Guitar chords with lyrics

Chorus:
              Em
Back from the edge
               C
Back from the dead

Back to my heart

Back to the boy who would reach for the stars

Verse 1:
            Em                    C
You can take my home, you can take my clothes
                   D                        G
You can take the drugs I have that nobody knows
                 Em                      Am
You can take my watch, you can take my phone
             B
You can take all I've got 'til I'm skin and bone
                  Em                    C
I don't want control, I can dig my own hole
               D                       G
I can make my bed and I can lie in it cold
                     Em                         Am
'Cause I don't need heat, I've been burnin' in hell
             B
But now I'm back with my own story to tell

Chorus:
              Em
Back from the edge
               C
Back from the dead
             D                         G
Back before demons took control of my head
              Em
Back to the start
            Am
Back to my heart
             B                            Em
Back to the boy who would reach for the stars
                  Em
Oh, back from the edge
               C
Back from the dead
               D                           G
Back from the tears that were too easily shed
              Em
Back to the start
            Am
Back to my heart
             B                            Em
Back to the boy who would reach for the stars
Em C D G                            Em Am  B
       Who would reach for the stars, yeah

Verse 2:
                  Em                       C
They don't like my lies, they don't like my songs
              D                          G
Except in karaoke when they're singing along
                          Em                         Am
Did you see them build me up? Well I just tear myself down
                    B
With a smile on my face, I dug my grave in the ground
                Em                       C
We all make mistakes, we're so quick to judge
                 D                         G
It's hard to forgive when we hold onto a grudge
                  Em                         Am
So turn down the heat, I've been burnin' in hell
             B
But now I'm back with my own story to tell

Chorus:
              Em
Back from the edge
               C
Back from the dead
             D                         G
Back before demons took control of my head
              Em
Back to the start
            Am
Back to my heart
             B                            Em
Back to the boy who would reach for the stars
                  Em
Oh, back from the edge
               C
Back from the dead
               D                           G
Back from the tears that were too easily shed
              Em
Back to the start
            Am
Back to my heart
             B                            Em
Back to the boy who would reach for the stars
Em C D G                            Em Am  B
       Who would reach for the stars, yeah

Bridge:
                  Em                    C
I don't want control, I can dig my own hole
               D                       G
I can make my bed and I can lie in it cold
                     Em                         Am
'Cause I don't need heat, I've been burnin' in hell
