[Verse 1] (picked)
[Em] [C] [G]
I thought I saw the devil, this morning
[Em] [C] [G] [Em]
Looking in the mirror, drop of rum on my tongue
[C] [G] [Em] [C] [G]
With the warning to help me see myself clearer
[Am] [G]
I never meant to start a fire,
[Em] [D] [C] ~
I never meant to make you bleed,
I'll be a better man today
[Chorus 1] (strummed)
[Em] [C] [G]

[Verse 2] (picked)
[Em] [C] [G]
My past has tasted bitter for years now,
[Em] [C] [G]
So I wield an iron fist
[Em]
Grace is just weakness
[C] [G]
Or so I've been told.
[Em] [C] [G]
I've been cold, I've been merciless
[Am] [G]
But the blood on my hands scares me to death
[Em] [D] [C] ~
Maybe I'm waking up today

[Bridge] (strummed)
[Am] [G]
For all of the light that I shut out
[Am] [G]
For all of the innocent things that I've doubt
[D] [Am] [G]
For all of the bruises that I've caused and the tears
[G] [C] [D] [Am] [G] [C]
For all of the things that I've done all these years
[D] [Am]
Yeah, for all of the sparks that I've stomped out
[G] [C]
For all of the perfect things that I doubt
[Chorus 3] (strummed)
[Em] [C] [G]
I'll be good, I'll be good
[Em] [C] [G]
And I'll love the world, like I should
[Em] [C] [G]
Yeah, I'll be good, I'll be good
[Am] [Em] [C] [G]
For all of the times that I never could.
