Em               G
Golden light you shut your eyes
       C          C/B        D
On the night that you caught fire
Em               G
Crawl in bed and tell me lies
  C        C/B       D
Before you close the door

Em                   G  
You're surprised you changed your mind
    C     C/B   D 
And ended up confused
    Em                  G
You begged him once and asked him twice
       C         C/B     D
Not to point his guns at you


Chorus:
    C         G     D      G               C       G     D
But don't get on my softer side 'cause its already nine pm
C             G         D       G             C             G      D 
Well, call it quits but call me first and the witching hour will begin
          C        G           D
Oh ho the witching hour will begin

Legs to walk or brooms to fly
The gift horse of free will
Hearts of darkness, empty skies
You stop but can't sit still
Innocence self justified
You pull at your own skin
Strain to see the wrong from light
Fortified from within

Chorus

     
Look around its midnight now
You stare into the sun
Clinch your fists and cast your spells
The damage has been done

Chorus
