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Dm I seeing double, am I withdrawn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