Arsonists Lullaby (ver 3) Chords

My first tab so go easy, but if i made any mistake feel free to put them in the comments!

The way he plays the first verse is a bit strange, as he only plays F#m once, then open 
pam mute strums
throughout the rest of the verse, and changes pitch with his voice alone.
You can play it this way or just play the first verse like all the others (which is what 
i do.


Each chord in the humming piece is only strummed once (all chords in the song i play as 
power chords)

(humming)- F#m, G#m, Am, Am, Bm, F#m  x2

     When I was a child, I heard voices,
                                         RIFF
Some would sing and some would scream.
                                       RIFF
You soon find you have few choices,
                                     RIFF
I learned the voices died with me.


RIFF  F#m                          Am     Dm      RIFF
           When I was a child I'd sit for hours,
Bm           Dm        C#m      RIFF
    Staring into open flames.
F#m                 Am    Dm     RIFF
    Something in it had a power,
Bm               C#m           F#m     RIFF
    Could barely tear my eyes away.

Chorus:
F#m                          Dm    F#m   RIFF
        All you have is your fire,
F#m                               C#m    RIFF
        And the place you need to reach.
F#m               Am    Dm       F#m     RIFF
        Don't you ever, tame your demons,
F#m            C#m              F#m      RIFF
        Always keep them on a leash.


(humming)


When i was 16 my senses fooled me,
Thought gasoline was on my clothes.
I knew that something would always rule me,
I knew this sin was mine alone.

All you have is your fire,
And the place you need to reach.
Don't you ever, tame your demons,
Always keep them on a leash.

When I was a man I thought it ended,
Well I knew loves perfect ache
But my peace has always depended,
on all the ashes in my way

All you have is your fire,
And the place you need to reach.
Don't you ever, tame your demons,
Always keep them on a leash.
