Bbm Probably a metaphor for everything I've learned Db Like how the only love I'll have is gonna crash and burn Ab Or how the poorest I've felt was after the most I've earned Gb The biggest lie I told is that no one should be concerned Bbm There's gotta be another highway that don't lead to Hell Db A star to lead me through the darkest night like Christian Bale Ab I hid from God for more than two decades of life Gb And when I came back to the light, He didn't ask me if I'm Christian still Bbm Just opened up His arms and embraced me like I'm His Son Db Erasing all the archetypes of what people like me become Ab Since I was young, my personality split like serpent's tongue Gb But all the poison in my body still ain't make me numb Bbm I lost a best friend and felt all that Db Crying on his open casket while I knelt on that Ab I had a best man picked out for my wedding Gb But instead of getting married, I carried guilt and left all that Bbm A vagabond that broke a bond for Boca Raton Db Who all along regretted he never kept all that Ab Gb I left everything behind but this engagement ring and a frozen heart Gb I'm standin' in the fire to melt all that, yeah 🎸 Chorus: Bbm Db Ash and dust Ab Gb Everything I care about and love Bbm Db (Burn!)
