Chorus:
Back from the [Em]edge
Back from the [C]dead
Back before [D]demons took control of my [G]head
Back to the [Em]start
Back to my [Am]heart
Back to the [B]boy who would reach for the [Em]stars
[Em] [C] [D] [G]Oh, he would reach for the st[Em]ars[C], y[B]eah
Verse 1:
You can [Em]take my home, you can [C]take my clothes
You can take the [D]drugs I have that nobody [G]knows
You can take my [Em]watch, you can take my [Am]phone
You can take [B]all I’ve got ’til I’m skin and bone
I don’t want [Em]control, I can dig my own [C]hole
I can make my [D]bed and I can lie in it [G]cold
‘Cause I don’t need [Em]heat, I’ve been burnin’ in [Am]hell
But now I’m [B]back with my own story to tell
Chorus:
Back from the [Em]edge
Back from the [C]dead

Back to the [B]boy who would reach for the [Em]stars
Oh, back from the [Em]edge
Back from the [C]dead

Verse 2:
They don’t like [Em]my lies, they don’t like [C]my songs
Except in [D]karaoke when they’re singing [G]along
Did you see them build me [Em]up? Well I just tear [Am]myself down
With a smile on my [B]face, I dug my grave in the ground
We all make [Em]mistakes, we’re so quick to [C]judge
It’s hard to [D]forgive when we hold onto a [G]grudge
So turn down the [Em]heat, I’ve been burnin’ in [Am]hell
But now I’m [B]back with my own story to tell
Chorus:
Back from the [Em]edge
Back from the [C]dead
Back before [D]demons took control of my [G]head

Oh, back from the [Em]edge
Back from the [C]dead
Back from the [D]tears that were too easily [G]shed

Back to my [Am]heart
Back to the [B]boy who would reach for the [Em]stars
