[Verse]
Em Am Em
I have seen the firewatcher’s daughter.
Em Am Em
watching fires burn from smoke to black.
C D G D/F# Em
there's nothing she won't burn, from Styrofoam to urns.
B7/F#
to someone else's ashes in a sack... (..oh god i love her)
[Instrumental]
Em
[Verse]
Em Am Em
You can scorch the metal, you can even melt the glass.
C Em
You can pass the time here, fire lives into the past
C D G D/F# Em
An all-consuming flame, that refines and new begins
B7/F# B A G F# Em
It'll take your family heirlooms, but it can take your darkest sins
C Em
It's a good ol' bedtime story, give you nightmares 'til you die
D Em
And the ones that love to tell it, hide the mischief in their eyes
C
Condemn their sons to Hades
Em Am
And Gehenna is full of guys, alive and well
B7/F# Em
But there ain't no hell for a firewatcher's daughter
[Bridge]
Em Am Em
woooooooo
Em Am Em
woooooooo
C D Em
woooooo
[Verse]
Em Am Em
We exercise the demons of the things we used to know
C Em
The gnashing of the teeth become the remnants of our homes
C D G D/F# Em
We think we're moving on, from materials we long
B7 Em
To forget we ever sold our souls to own
Em Am Em
There's a chilling absolution that we're given from our birth
C D/F# Em
A powerful delusion and a plague upon the earth
C D
But nothing scares me more
G D/F# Em
Than the stranger at my door
B7/F# Em
Who I fail to give shelter, time, and worth
C Em
It's a good ol' bedtime story, give you nightmares 'til you die
D Em
And the ones that love to tell it, hide the mischief in their eyes
C
Condemn their sons to Hades
Em Am
And Gehenna is full of guys, alive and well
