Demons by Kenny Chesney


(F#m) Sometimes they're in a bottle, 
(D)Sometimes a pair of high-heel (A)shoes,
(F#m)Some come rolled in paper
(D)Some have six strings and (E)only play the blues 
(F#m)Once you've met the devil 
There ain't no (D)way he'll let you (A)be 
(A)When I'm not chasing demons, 
There's (E)demons chasing (A)me 

(F#m) Skeletons in closets 
(D)Ghosts underneath the (A)bed 
(F#m)They hide out in pictures 
(D)And words (E)better left unsaid 
(F#m)They hang around like perfume 
And haunt me (D)like an ancient (A)melody 
(A)When I'm not chasing demons, 
There's (E)demons chasing (A)me. 

(E)There's things that I can't leave alone 
(D)'Cause they won't leave me alone 
(A)What I want ain't what I (D)need 
(E)Still I reach for the things I crave 
(D)Then try to run away 
(A)Am I afraid of being (D)free 
(F#m)'Cause when I'm not chasing demons
There's (D)demons chasing (A)me 

(F#m)So roll one up and light it 
(D)Pick up my old (A)guitar 
(F#m)I'm playing crossroads 
(D)Drinking whiskey (E)from a mason jar 
(F#m)Heartache at my front door 
Says she (D)needs my (A)company 
(A)When I'm not chasing demons 
There's (E)demons chasing (A)me 
  
(E)There's things that I can't leave alone 
(D)'Cause they won't leave me alone 
(A)What I want ain't what I (D)need 
(E)Still I reach for the things I crave 
(D)Then try to run away 
(A)Am I afraid of being (D)free 
(F#m)'Cause when I'm not chasing demons
There's (D)demons chasing (A)me

(F#m)When I'm not chasing demons 
There's (D)demons chasing (A)me 

(D)Demons chasing (A)me.
