Cover My Traces

Tom: Am

        Am                     G
Like a slow death creeps in a restless sleep
      F      E
I'm anxiety buried in sheets
        Am           B          E
What a life, what a wasted life, what a waste of time
  Am
People are cruel
 G
Everybody lies
  F                         E
Just to get ahead or maybe just to get by
 Am                   B          E
What a life, what a wasted life, what a waste


[Chorus]
             Am       G
So I'll set fires in curious places
F              E              Am
Smile to the innocent faces
          B               E
In the remains, there are ashes

And I cover my traces
Am         G                   F
Fire, consuming all spaces
              E
And now our past will chase us
Am         B                E
In the remains, there are ashes

Better cover my traces


[Verse 2]
       Am                      G
Little redhead friend of the sparking choir
        F                            E
From a kindle you will grow into a raging fire
        Am            B           E
What a sight, what a lovely sight, what an end to life
 Am
People are fuel
 G
Everybody burns
 F                            E
Just a little push and maybe some will learn
        Am                 B
What a life (is like), what a life (is like)
 E7
What it's like to burn


[Chorus]
             Am       G
So I'll set fires in curious places
F              E              Am
Smile to the innocent faces
          B               E
In the remains, there are ashes

And I cover my traces
Am         G                   F
Fire, consuming all spaces
              E
And now our past will chase us
Am         B                E
In the remains, there are ashes
                         Am  G  F
Better cover my traces (fire)
  E                       Am B E
Better cover my traces
                        Am  G  F
And I cover my traces (fire)
        E                Am
Better cover my traces
B          E
There are ashes, better cover my traces
