F#m                          E
When I was a child, I heard voices,
F#m                               E
Some would sing and some would scream.
F#m                          E
You soon find you have few choices,
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#7
Staring into open flames.
F#m              A     D
Something in it had a power,
Bm           C#7           F#m
Could barely tear my eyes away.

Chorus:
F#m      A            D   F#m
All you have is your fire,
F#m                        C#7
And the place you need to reach.
F#m       A    D           F#m
Don't you ever, tame your demons,
F#m     C#7            F#m
Always keep them on a leash.

When I was sixteen, my senses fooled me
Thought gasoline was on my clothes
I knew that something would always rule me
I knew this scent was mine alone

Chorus:
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons
Always keep them on a leash

When I was a man, I thought it ended
When I knew love's perfect ache
But my peace has always depended
On all the ashes in my wake

Chorus:
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons
But always keep them on a leash
