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.
