D Gm A Dm

[Verse 1]
D                               Gm
There are others in this house, I hear them calling from the outer rooms
A                         Dm
Log, hearth and ash under stale kerosene fumes
D                                       Gm
Footsteps in the saddening snow lead me farther from this place
A                         Dm
Second chair drums keeping swaggering pace

[Bridge]
F                                    Bbm
But there are few who know where I'm going
                            A
And few who know where I've been
    A
Not again

[Chorus]
F                      C
I've burned my desire, placed it upon the pyre
Gm                              F#
Seen the floors cave in and our hearts swell within
F                            C
Turned water into piss, felt sodden and soiled from a wretched kiss
Gm                          A#              A
Filled an ocean with tears, all within just 27 years

D Gm A Dm x2

[Verse 2]
D                            Gm
Spare me the compassion that other men might show
A                        Dm
All has been lost in the harvest moon glow
D                                        Gm
With hateful embers in my chest, I'll go wandering through the night
A                        Dm
With godspeed I'll travel downward hence the light

[Bridge]
F                                    Bbm
But there are few who know where I'm going
                            A
And few who know where I've been
A
Not again

[Chorus]
F                      C
I've burned my desire, placed it upon the pyre
Gm                              F#
Seen the floors cave in and our hearts swell within
F                            C
Turned water into piss, felt sodden and soiled from a wretched kiss
Gm                          A#              A
Filled an ocean with tears, all within just 27 years

D Gm A Dm x2

[Interlude]
D*               Gm*              A
The pages of my time-worn life, written in blood
D*                       Gm*
The skin will peel, the wounds won't heal
A
Awaiting the flood

[Chorus]
F                      C
I've burned my desire, placed it upon the pyre
Gm                              F#
Seen the floors cave in and our hearts swell within
F                            C
Turned water into piss, felt sodden and soiled from a wretched kiss
Gm                          A#              A
Filled an ocean with tears, all within just 27 years
