^CGuess I had to ^Amfind out the ^Emhard way ^CThe things ^AmI have come here ^Emto learn ^CThe fire of this ^Ampleasure it can ^Emwarm me ^FBut in the ^Emend it only ^Amburns

^CHe could put me ^Amhigh on a ped^Emestal ^CHe could ^Amrob me of my s^Emhame ^CHe could hold me ^Amdown under ^Emwater, 'Til I ^FCould not r^Ememember my own ^Amname

CHORUS

^GIn my mind ^FI see the house I'm ^Ambuilding ^GIn my hands ^Fthe hammer and the ^Amnail ^CGonna send ^Ammy wishes up to ^Emglory ^FGonna shake that ^Emdevil off my ^Amtrail

^CIn my time ^AmI've done some ^Emmeanness ^CBrought the ones I^Am love so much ^Empain ^CPride it was ^Ameating all my ^Emheart away ^FMy soul was ^Emrusting in the ^Amrain
