Intro: 4/4 
            C                         G
1. When the days are cold     And the cards all fold         
           Am                       F
   And the saints we see    Are all made of gold       
             C                          G
   When your dreams all fail    And the ones we hail
           Am                      F
   Are the worst of all    And the blood's run stale

          C                    G                           Am
Pre Chorus: I want to hide the truth    I want to shel-ter you
                                  F                               C
            But with the beast in-side    There's no-where we can hide
                               G                             Am 
            No mat-ter what we breed    We still are made of greed
                                F                           C
            This is my king-dom come    This is my king-dom come

                         G                     Am
Chorus: When you feel my heat    Look in-to my eyes
                              F                             C
        It's where my de-mons hide    It's where my de-mons hide
                      G                     Am
        Don't get too close    It's dark in-side
                              F                             C
        It's where my de-mons hide    It's where my de-mons hide

          C                         G
2. At the cur-tain's call    Is the last of all
            Am                         F
   When the lights fade out    All the sin-ners crawl
           C                         G
   So they dug your grave    And the mas-que-rade
             Am                     F
   Will come ca-lling out    At the mess you made

          C                       G                     Am
Pre Chorus: Don't want to let you down    But I am hell bound
                                   F                             C
            Though this is all for you    Don't want to hide the truth
                               G                             Am    
            No mat-ter what we breed    We still are made of greed
                                F                           C
            This is my king-dom come    This is my king-dom come

                         G                    Am
Chorus: When you feel my heat    Look into my eyes
                              F                             C
        It's where my de-mons hide    It's where my de-mons hide
                      G                     Am
        Don't get too close    It's dark in-side
                              F                             C
        It's where my de-mons hide    It's where my de-mons hide

                               G                        Am  
Bridge: They say it's what you make    I say it's up to fate
                          F                         C
        It's wo-ven in my soul    I need to let you go
                                G                             Am  
        Your eyes they shine so bright    I want to save that life
                             F                          C
        I can't es-cape this now    Un-less you show me how

                         G                    Am
Chorus: When you feel my heat    Look into my eyes
                              F                             C
        It's where my de-mons hide    It's where my de-mons hide
                      G                     Am
        Don't get too close    It's dark in-side
                              F                             C
        It's where my de-mons hide    It's where my de-mons hide

Notes:

  • Level of Ease: Easy in C Major. We have used the version in C Major so that beginners can play... no barre chords.
  • For more advanced players there is the option to play in the original key of E♭Major and also the option to play power chords esp. for anyone wanting to use distortion.

    If you are playing in the original key, you will notice the B♭add4 chord option (formula 1-3-4-5)... not to be mistaken for a B♭sus4 (1-4-5). There are 2 versions of barre chords to choose from depending on your preference... 011331 OR 668766. It can also we written as B♭(4)
  • The same applies to capo users with Gadd4 replacing G... sounds great.
  • Use the Transposer for any key changes.
