James Arthur - Back From The Edge

[chorus]
              Em
back from the edge
               C
back from the dead
             D                         G
back before demons took control of my head
              Em
back to the start
            Am
back to my heart
             B                            Em
back to the boy who would reach for the stars
Em C D G                            Em C  B
       Oh, he would reach for the stars, yeah

[Verse 1]
            Em                    C
You can take my home, you can take my clothes
                   D                        G
You can take the drugs I have that nobody knows
                 Em                      Am
You can take my watch, you can take my phone
             B
You can take all I've got 'til I'm skin and bone
                  Em                    C
I don't want control, I can dig my own hole
               D                       G
I can make my bed and I can lie in it cold
                     Em                         Am
'cause I don't need heat, I've been burnin' in hell
             B
but now I'm back with my own story to tell

[chorus]
              Em
back from the edge
               C
back from the dead
             D                         G
back before demons took control of my head
              Em
back to the start
            Am
back to my heart
             B                            Em
back to the boy who would reach for the stars
                  Em
Oh, back from the edge
               C
back from the dead
               D                           G
back from the tears that were too easily shed
              Em
back to the start
            Am
back to my heart
             B                            Em
back to the boy who would reach for the stars
Em C D G                            Em Am  B
       Who would reach for the stars, yeah

[Verse 2]
                  Em                       C                
They don't like my lies, they don't like my songs
              D                          G                 
except in karaoke when they're singing along
                          Em                         Am   
did you see them build me up? Well I just tear myself down
                    B                                     
With a smile on my face, I dug my grave in the ground
                Em                       C                  
We all make mistakes, we're so quick to judge
                 D                         G               
It's hard to forgive when we hold onto a grudge
                  Em                         Am           
So turn down the heat, I've been burnin' in hell
             B                                            
but now I'm back with my own story to tell

[chorus]

               C
back from the dead
             D                         G
back before demons took control of my head
              Em
back to the start
            Am
back to my heart
             B                            Em
back to the boy who would reach for the stars
                  Em
Oh, back from the edge
               C
back from the dead
               D                           G
back from the tears that were too easily shed
              Em
back to the start
            Am
back to my heart
             B                            Em
back to the boy who would reach for the stars
Em C D G                            Em Am  B
       Who would reach for the stars, yeah

[bridge]
                  Em                    C
I don't want control, I can dig my own hole
               D                       G
I can make my bed and I can lie in it cold

back before demons took control of my head
              Em
back to the start
            Am
back to my heart
             B                            Em
back to the boy who would reach for the stars
                  Em
Oh, back from the edge
