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.
