[Intro]
C/G G Dsus4/A Em
C/G G Dsus4/A

[Verse 1]
C/G      G           Dsus4/A      Em
I didn't want to be awake for the sunrise
       C/G            G         Dsus4/A
But my heart wouldn't let me rest
C/G      G               Dsus4/A      Em
I didn't want to see the light of the morning
        C/G    G       Dsus4/A
With an aching in my chest


[Chorus]
        C/G        G
So does fire beget fire
     Am7           C/G
As a warning? As a test?
C/G    G         Dsus4/A  Em
I only wanted to know you better
       C/G            Dsus4/A     G
I only thought that I knew you best


[Verse 2]
C/G      G             Dsus4/A  Em
I didn't think I was a terrible liar
      C/G       G         Dsus4/A
But I am when I need it most
C/G      G      Dsus4/A       Em
Making a sorry attempt at compersion
       C/G          G          Dsus4/A
With a hand halfway down my throat


[Chorus]
        C/G        G
So does life carry forth
       Am7        C/G
If the station is remote?
C/G           G          Dsus4/A    Em
Hope is still keeping my head above water
         C/G      Dsus4/A   G
'Til the moment before I choke

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
C/G        G            Dsus4/A       Em
Therе is a future where wе're resting easy
       C/G   G        Dsus4/A
On the other side of us
C/G            G             Dsus4/A    Em
But I'd rather feel the full wrath of destruction
     C/G          G           Dsus4/A
Than remember the things I've done


[Outro]
       C/G        G
I gave up on that life
     Am7            C/G
As I gave myself to you
C/G     G             Dsus4/A    Em
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
    C/G         Dsus4/A  G
I deserve it, I know I do
C/G     G             Dsus4/A    Em
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
    C/G         Dsus4/A  G
I deserve it, I know I do
