Intro/Verse:
F# C# A#m G#
A#m I seeing double, am I withdrawn
F# C# A#m G#
Depositing lyrics into a love song
F# C# A#m G#
Spider weaving webs for a catch that won't come
F# C# A#m G#
A#m I pulling roses from a dead bush
F# C# A#m G#
A# soldier running late for the ambush
F# C# A#m G#
Ready in the depth for a stone that's long gone
F-C-Am-G#
Prechorus:
G#
Is it too late?
F# C# A#m G#
It's never ending but nevertheless
(Is it too late)
F# C# A#m G#
I'm the first one to second my guess
F# A#m C# G#
And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember
Chorus:
F#maj9 A#m
And every I step I take, got the devil to repay
G#
I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender
F#maj9 A#m
Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way
G#
Like a phoenix rising up from ash and ember
Ash and ember
F#maj9 A#m G#
F# C# A#m G#
A#m I reaching out for something that I can't grab
F# C# A#m G#
Something infinitely splitting into two halves
F# C# A#m G#
Is there something I forgot that I can't remember
F# C# A#m G#
A#m I swimming in a river that was manmade
F# C# A#m G#
Demolishing a road that was just paved
F# C# A#m G#
It's like trying to catch a junebug in late December
G#
Is it too late?
F# C# A#m G#
It's never ending but nevertheless
(Is it too late)
F# C# A#m G#
I'm the first one to second my guess
F# A#m C# G#
And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember
Chorus:
F#maj9 A#m
And every I step I take, got the devil to repay
G#
I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender
F#maj9 A#m
Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way
G#
Like a phoenix rising up from ash and ember
Ash and ember
F# C# A#m G#
Have I climbed the ladder to the last rung
F# C# A#m G#
A#m I simply gonna finish where I started from
F# C# A#m G#
Is the future just the past that I'll never outrun
F#maj9 A#m
And every I step I take, got the devil to repay
G#
I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender
F#maj9 A#m
Had to take it day by day, had to feel the heartbreak
G#
Like a phoenix I was born from ash and ember
Ash and ember
Ash and ember
A#m I stealing something I could borrow
Is yesterday just waiting for tomorrow
