Stubborn Beast Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]My sullen songs have taken me
far down this darkened road
I have seen [G]the campfires burning,
I have heard the [D]drunkards howl
I'm silent in my solitude, I'm quiet as a thief
I have [G]stolen all these hours,
I have gotten no re[D]lief

[Verse 2]
My [A]crazy dreams and tragedies
[G]have taken me for [D]a ride
[G]But I can see [D]strange glory
on the other [A]side[D]
Oh, this has been my misery
and the source of my pride
But [A]all along I'm thinking that
I've [G]been taken [D]for a ride

[Verse 3]
Why don't [G]you take me
when [D]I'm willing?
Why don't [G]you take me when
[D]I'm willing?

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D]
[A][G][D]

[Verse 4]
But [D]like a stubborn beast
when the barn is on fire
I [G]might resist you when you try to save [D]my life
I might res[G]ist you when
you try to save my [D]life
When [A]the flames rise around us
and [G]I can't see the d[D]oor
[G]This is still my [D]home and it has
never [A]burned before

[Verse 5]
[D]
Oh, this is where I've taken
my solace and my peace
The [A]walls are caving in but I am
[G]still a [D]stubborn beast

[Verse 6]
Why don't [G]you take me when [D]I'm?
Why don't you [G]take me when [D]I'm willing?
