The Summit Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
I was [F]looking
for the wrong way out
Empty road is like an open mouth
If I [Am]stay, they're gonna cast
new doubt on me now
If the [F]sun is setting on my side
Like a vesper in the eventide
Then their [Am]lips are gonna open wide,
serpent tongue
[F]How could I know when the [Am]ebb
and flow would desert you?
[F]How can I crawl up to [Am]reach those heights
And run?
The venom is what keeps [F]me alive
The venom is what keeps me alive
Up to the summit at [Dm]night
Desperate [F]to find that beating heart of
mine that always [G]makes [Am]me run
Isola[F]tion if the road can't wind
Force of nature in a different time
Setting [Am]sun is gonna make
me blind to my faults
[Em]Echo chamb[F]er in a canyon height
Take the exit where no one can hide
If their [Am]lips are gonna open wide,
serpent tongue
[F]How could I know when the [Dsus4]ebb
and flow would [Am]desert you?
[F]How can I crawl up to [Dsus4]reach
[Dm]thos[Dsus4]e heights[Am]
And run?
The venom is what keeps me [F]alive
The venom is what keeps me alive
Up to the summit at [Dm]night
Desperate [F]to find that beating heart
of mine that [Am]always makes me run
I could not go on
Break me down and [Dsus4]hold
me 'til the dawn
Poison [Dm]is the pu[F]rposeful,
it's gone
Desperate to [Em]find that beating heart
[Am]I co[F]uld [Am]not go on
Break me down and [F]hold
[Am]me 'til the da[G]wn
[C]Poison is the [F]pur[Em]posef[Am]ul,
it's gone
Desperate to find that beating heart
And run
The venom is what keeps [F]me alive
The venom is what keeps me alive
Up to the summit at [Dm]night
Desperate [F]to find that beating heart of
mine that always [G]makes me [Am]run
The venom is what keeps me [F]alive
The venom is what keeps me alive
Up to the summit at [Dm]night
Desperate to [F]find that beating heart of
mine that always [Dm]makes me run
The [C]venom is what keeps me alive
The [C]venom is what [G]keeps me alive
