Intro: Em7  G7/E  G (x2) 

  Em7         G7/E                 G 
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth 
  Em7        G7/E                 G 
I need them mechanically make the words come out 
    Em7       G7/E                G 
They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce 
  Em7     G7/E                       G 
Ignite me, licking up the flames they bring about 

Em7       Dsus4/A             G 
I sold my soul to a three-piece 
     
And he told me I was holy 
Em7        Dsus4/A           G 
He's got me down on both knees 

But it's the devil that's tryna 

Em7          G7/E 
Hold me down, hold me down 
G 
Sneaking out the back door, 
Make no sound 
Em7          G7/E 
Knock me out, knock me out 
G 
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for 
Em7          G7/E 
Hold me down, hold me down 
G 
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown 
Em7          G7/E 
Knock me out, knock me out 
G 
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for 

Em7     G7/E                   G 
Selfish, taking what I want and call it mine 
Em7          G7/E                G 
I'm helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine 
Em7          G7/E                   G 
They rush me, telling me I'm running out of time 
Em7           G7/E                G 
They shush me, walking me across a fragile line 


Em7       Dsus4/A             G 
I sold my soul to a three-piece 
     
And he told me I was holy 
Em7        Dsus4/A           G 
He's got me down on both knees 

But it's the devil that's tryna
