Title: Demons
C F
I got too drunk at your wedding and my voice got loud
C F
and I said some creepy things and I staggered around
Am G F
and even though your best man had to kick me out
F G C
it was a pretty good time either way.
C F
You see, a fight broke out and an old man was yelling,
C F
cuz no one was buying all the bullshit he was selling
Am G F
and he threw all his keepsakes on the ground and walked away,
F G C
cursing hard to bring back yesterday
Am G F C G Am
And the dy-i-i-i-ing aint gonna stop just because you walk away.
C G F
And you can cr-y-y-y for everything that youve lost
F G C
but youre never gonna bring back these days.
C-F x2
C F
I hate the Mondays and the Fridays cuz they always define
C F
The endless march of pushing, ruthlessly to the light.
Am G F
Well, if Im gonna be dying then Im gonna get high
F G C
and scream until Im not feeling the pain.

C F
Lets burn a bridge for the fuck of it and kill this night
C F
With some beers down at the pits, with whiskey lips and well try
Am G F
To love for the moment and forget for the night,
F G C
that life doesnt usually feel great.
Am G F C G Am
And the dy-i-i-i-ing aint gonna stop just because you walk away.
C G F
And you can cr-y-y-y for everything that youve lost
F G C
but youre never gonna bring back these days.
