Fighting Dragons chords by Jennifer Msumba

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:

D
i can hear my own reflections everywhere
G                                            D
they’re an echo from the past following me around
D                                             G
it’s so hard to say why it hurt, you weren’t there
      Gm                            D
but perhaps you can hear it in my sound


Pre Chorus:

D                                            G
so i close my eyes and sing this battered heart out
G                                D
hoping that these people will applaud
D                                                 G
i ain't got no plans to move ahead i’m treading water
Gm                                           D
perhaps they’ll throw a lifeline from the crowd

Chorus:

D                                 G
imagine fighting dragons in your mind
     G                                D
the fire breathing beasts have took control
D                                  G
it’s all that you can do to stay alive
       Gm                                   D
and protect the precious gift that is your soul

Verse 2:

    D                                           G
at night i dream about all the things that happened
           G                                   D
all the pain and grief and fear that i’ve repressed
              D                               G
i pray to God to take away these constant nightmares
              Gm                           D
and one day i’ll raise my head and be refreshed

Chorus:

D                                 G
imagine fighting dragons in your mind
      G                                D
the fire breathing beasts have took control
D                                  G
it’s all that you can do to stay alive
       Gm                                   D
and protect the precious gift that is your soul

Chorus:


D                                 G
imagine fighting dragons in your mind
      G                                D
the fire breathing beasts have took control
D                                  G
it’s all that you can do to stay alive
      Gm                                   D
and protect the precious gift that is your soul
