Firestorm

Capo 3
Am E7 Am
Chorus:
Am
I ain�t like that anymore
E7
I don�t kick off like before
F G
I�m more relaxed, I�m all reformed
Am
I ain�t a firestorm
Am C
I played a show in Club Delaney
G Am
Long, but still they would not pay me
G Am F
They said times were tough and I said tough times just abound
Am C
They said it�s all misunderstanding
G Am
And I should not be so demanding
G E7 Am
In the old days I�d have burned the bastards down
Chorus
I made my way from Spain to France
A naked sort of paper dance
There were stamps to beg for and palms demanding grease
They said there�s nothing they could do
They said there�s tricks that get you through
Was a time I would have nailed those palms to trees
Chorus
Cause now you�ve turned my eyes to see
A wider view, a kinder scene
And I used to blame the forest for the trees
But you hold my hand and step me back
A love that lights a charcoal past
A trail of ash and burned down memories
Bridge:
G F
I used to flap my tongue like fists of flint against the granite fools
G Am
Until sparks blazed in my eyes, it�s true
G
But now I�m done with that, I haven�t
Am
Torched the woods to kill one rabbit
G E7?
Not for years, not until they came and f**ked with you
Final Chorus:
Am
I�m still like that some I know
E7
There�s still kindling in my soul
F G
It burns quiet, it burns slow
Am F G F G F G Am
Until a firestorm explodes
