Verse 1:

F#m                   A     D
  When I was a child, I heard voices
Bm          D                        C#
 Some would sing and some would scream
F#m                A     D
  You soon find you have few choices
Bm                C#          F#m
 I learned the voices died with me
F#m                      A      D
  When I was a child, I'd sit for hours
Bm       D           C#
 Staring into open flame
F#m               A    D
  Something in it had a power
Bm            C#            F#m
 Could barely tear my eyes away

Hook:

F#m                   D
  All you have is your fire
F#m                          C#
  And the place you need to reach
F#m          A   D
  Don't you ever tame your demons
F#m          C#                F#m
  But always keep them on a leash

Verse 2:

F#m                    A      D
 When I was sixteen, my senses fooled me
Bm               D              C#
 Thought gasoline was on my clothes
F#m                          A     D
 I knew that something would always rule me
Bm               C#            F#m
 I knew this scent was mine alone

F#m                   D
  All you have is your fire
F#m                          C#
  And the place you need to reach
F#m          A   D
  Don't you ever tame your demons
F#m          C#                F#m
  But always keep them on a leash


Bridge:

F#m              C#               D
 When I was a man, I thought it ended
A       Bm                  F#m
 When I knew love's perfect ache
                   C#         D
But my peace has always depended
A             Bm          F#m
 On all the ashes in my wake


Outro:

 F#m                   D
  All you have is your fire
F#m                          C#
  And the place you need to reach
F#m          A   D
  Don't you ever tame your demons
F#m          C#                F#m
  But always keep them on a leash
