Arsonists Lullabye chords by Hozier

[Verse 1]

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.

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.

[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.
