Intro/Verse:
E B G#m F#
G#m I seeing double, am I withdrawn
E B G#m F#
Depositing lyrics into a love song
E B G#m F#
Spider weaving webs for a catch that won't come
E B G#m F#
G#m I pulling roses from a dead bush
E B G#m F#
G# soldier running late for the ambush
E B G#m F#
Ready in the depth for a stone that's long gone
F-C-Am-F#
Prechorus:
F#
Is it too late?
E B G#m F#
It's never ending but nevertheless
(Is it too late)
E B G#m F#
I'm the first one to second my guess
E G#m B F#
And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember
Chorus:
Emaj9 G#m
And every I step I take, got the devil to repay
F#
I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender
Emaj9 G#m
Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way
F#
Like a phoenix rising up from ash and ember
Ash and ember
Emaj9 G#m F#
E B G#m F#
G#m I reaching out for something that I can't grab
E B G#m F#
Something infinitely splitting into two halves
E B G#m F#
Is there something I forgot that I can't remember
E B G#m F#
G#m I swimming in a river that was manmade
E B G#m F#
Demolishing a road that was just paved
E B G#m F#
It's like trying to catch a junebug in late December
F#
Is it too late?
E B G#m F#
It's never ending but nevertheless
(Is it too late)
E B G#m F#
I'm the first one to second my guess
E G#m B F#
And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember
Chorus:
Emaj9 G#m
And every I step I take, got the devil to repay
F#
I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender
Emaj9 G#m
Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way
F#
Like a phoenix rising up from ash and ember
Ash and ember
E B G#m F#
Have I climbed the ladder to the last rung
E B G#m F#
G#m I simply gonna finish where I started from
E B G#m F#
Is the future just the past that I'll never outrun
Emaj9 G#m
And every I step I take, got the devil to repay
F#
I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender
Emaj9 G#m
Had to take it day by day, had to feel the heartbreak
F#
Like a phoenix I was born from ash and ember
Ash and ember
Ash and ember
G#m I stealing something I could borrow
Is yesterday just waiting for tomorrow
