MY DEMON (GOD HELP ME) As recorded by Jimmy Barnes (From the 2019 Album MY CRIMINAL RECORD) [Intro] Em [Verse 1]
EmI've been running from something EThat I could not see I was Drunning from something That was Ainside of me I've Gbeen Emrunning from something That was Ghiding, Awaiting to be Emfree
[Verse 2]
EmI've been trying not to lose my grip EmTrying to keep control I've been Dtrying to win the battle With Emmy back Aagainst the wall GI've been Emtrying not to let it slip aGway I can't Ahold it anyEmmore
[Pre-Chorus]
EmAnd my Ademon he was patient Just wait 'till I have nowhere else to Emturn And he Aknew my situation AHe was laughing as I burned
[Chorus]
AAnd I cried out god Ehelp me I got Ano one on my sEide I'd get Adown on Gmy knEees If you Amake it alGright And EI cried Aout Ggod Ehelp me I'm Arunning Gout of Etime I'd fall Adown oGn my knEees If you Amake it alEright
[Interlude] Em [Verse 3]
EmI learned to keep my friends at arms length EmAnd my enemies real tight And GI Dlearned that when the night is cold The C#mfire's still burning bright And GI learEmned that when it hurt me Was the Gonly time that AI could feel Emalive
[Verse 4]
EmSo I started feeling no pain Even when they broke my F#mback And GI headed Ddown that empty road And Anever looking back And GI started to Emdraw a single Gbreathe before BeAfore I would atEmtack
[Pre-Chorus 2]
EmI saw my Ademon in the mirror ALooking back at me Right there in my eEmyes And I Acouldn't walk away from him ANo matter how hard I tried
[Chorus]
AAnd I cried out god Ehelp me I got no Aone on my siEde I'd get Adown on my Eknees If you Amake it alrighEt And I cried Aout Ggod help Eme I'm runAning out of timEme I'd fall Adown on my Eknees If you maAke it alEmright
