[Verse 1]
DI killed my first monster when I was sGeven years old
He meDlted like butter in my bathroom's sAixty-watt bulb
Kept a thDree-cell MagLite from Daddy's wGorkshop drawer
DUnder my pillow and I'd pGull it Alike a Dsword
[Chorus]
AnymGore when a restless fDeelin' keAeps me up at Bmnight
FGallin' on my kDnees is my new tAurnin' on the lDight
I keep my faGith intaDct, make suAre my prayers are Bmsaid
'Cause I'Gve learned that the Dmonsters ain't the Gones beAneath the bed D G
[Verse 2]
The Dwolf hunts a hungry man and the dGevil a lonely heart
A minefiDeld of bad decisions lay Ahidin' in the dark
GrDeed stalks, sickness steals, and pride Glays a wicked trap
You cDan't avoid 'em all, no, you gotta Atrust me on tDhat
[Chorus]
AnymGore when a restless fDeelin' keAeps me up at Bmnight
FGallin' on my kDnees is my new tAurnin' on the lDight
I keep my faGith intaDct, make suAre my prayers are Bmsaid
'Cause I'Gve learned that the Dmonsters ain't the Gones beAneath the Bmbed
[Solo]
Hold Bm then faint strumming ~G-A-B-D
[Interlude]
Finger picking open chords with a bass run of G-F#-E.
[Verse 3]
DDaddy, check my closet, leave Gon the bathroom light
I sDmile and say "All clear" when I Atuck him in for the night
But DDaddy, I'm still scared, can I sGleep with you instead?
I Dkneel down beside my little man and I bow my head
[Chorus]
AnymGore when a restless fDeelin' keAeps me up at Bmnight
FGallin' on my kDnees is my new tAurnin' on the lDight
I keep my faGith intaDct, make suAre my prayers are Bmsaid
'Cause I'Gve learned that the Dmonsters ain't the Gones beAneath the Bmbed
GI've learned that the mDonsters ain't GunderAneath the Dbed G D
