E With the hand of God swinging from my neck A E I walked back up the stairs A E God knows why I did I knew what was waiting there A E Black eyes like coal and a heart like an empty pot of gold A E God damn I should've seen it and I had just fixed up my soul
B E B E In the dark I heard some laughing I thought that it was you A E B But I done some deeper thinking it could've been me
E A E Oh man I am recovering but will the fire never end? B So hard what with remembering and the foolishness of feeling E A E Oh man I am remembering why the fire never ends B E So hard all this recovering at the heavy way I'm feeling
E A E Saw a crystal ball rolling down the street thought I'd try to hop a ride A E God damn I couldn't catch it went and left me mystified A E No moon no stars and no gas in the tanks of any cars A E God knows I should be moving but I would not be getting far
B E B E In the dark I heard some screaming I just assumed that it was you A E B But once I knew I was dreaming it had to be me
E A E Oh man I am recovering but will the fire never end? B So hard what with remembering and the foolishness of feeling E A E Oh man I am remembering why the fire never ends B E So hard all this recovering with the heavy way I'm feeling
B A E Can't find the keys to the kingdom A B E I will be going A B E He will be going
E A E With the dead of night running from the dawn I walked back down the stairs A E Now I know why I did it there was nothing for me there A E Regret's not cheap running wild it'll cost you more than sleep A E I thought I was the secret but I was too easy to keep
B E B E Now I had heard some begging and I knew it couldn't be you A E B Cause you were standing in your kitchen looking at me
E A E Oh man I am recovering but will the fire never end? B So hard what with remembering and the foolishness of feeling E A E Oh man I am remembering why the fire never ends B E So hard all this recovering with the heavy way I'm feeling B E With the heavy way I'm feeling B E With the heavy way I'm feeling
