[D] Back [Gm] from the edge, back [Eb] from the dead, [F] back before demons took control of [Bb] my head
Back [Eb] to the start, [A] back to my heart, back to [D] the point
Oh what a reach [G] for the stars
[Eb] [F] Oh [Bb] you what a [Eb] reach for the stars
[A] [D] You can [G] take my home, you [Eb] can take my clothes, you can [F] take the drugs I have that [Bb] nobody knows
You [Eb] can take my watch, you [D] can take my phone, you can take all I got till I'm skiddin' blown
I [Gm] don't want control, I can dig [Eb] my own hole, I can [F] make my bed and I can lie [Bb] in it cold
Cause I [Eb] don't need heat, I've been [Am] burnin' in hell, but now [D] I'm back with my own story to tell
Back [Gm] from the edge, back [Eb] from the dead, back [F] before demons took control [Bb] of my head
Back [Eb] to the start, back [A] to my heart, back [D] to the point

[Eb] [A] [D] And they don't [Gm] write my lines, they don't [Eb] like my songs
Except [F] on karaoke when they're singing [Bb] along
But did you see them [Eb] build me up?
Watch me tear [A] myself down
[Am] With a smile on [D] my face, I dunk my grave in the ground
We all [Gm] make mistakes, we're so quick [Eb] to judge
It's hard [F] to forgive when we hold on [Bb] to a grudge
So turn [Eb] down the heat, I've been burning [A] in hell
But now [D] I'm back with my story to tell
I'm back from [Gm] the edge, back from [Eb] the dead
I'm primed [F] for our deeds, no control in [Bb] my head
