Verse 1
        Em                         E                      Am
For so long have my teeth held my tongue from a venomous voice
        Em                        E                       Am
But the poison has passed from my lips to my hands, an incendiary ploy
  Em        E            Am
(Hell will open up it's flue) I bare my soul through the flames before me
     Em        E            Am                 G D
(And you will witness what the fire can undo)

Chorus
C                                      C D
Far from the ash I will be born again
G                      C    G G
 Where every debt is repaid
D                                       Em D
Nothing left to keep me out of paradise
   C
As portraits of the past fade away

Bridge
    C                    E
The id dots the eyes of antiquity
           F                       E
While the ego, of late, has held sway
     Am                        E                Dm                  Em   E  Am
Too foolish to stray past the line too weary to stay, too weary to stay

Verse 2
        Em                      E                  Am
Far too long have I waited to witness the balances bend
        Em                     E
In the favor of wrongs being remedied
            Am               G D
Wickedness coming to an end

Chorus
C                                      C D
Far from the ash I will be born again
G                      C    G G
 Where every debt is repaid
D                                       Em D
Nothing left to keep me out of paradise
    C
As portraits of the past fade away
C                                         C D
Far beyond the act I will be whole again
G                      C    G G
 A phoenix out of the flame
     D                                 Em D
I'm burying that menace in my memory
   C
A funeral held in my name

Verse 3
     C                     E
The ritual pyre's sending smoke to the sky
        F                     E
As the building continues to burn
     Am                     E
The wrath in the ruin, the pain in the grave
       Dm                       E
As the lies are retired to the urn

Bridge
        C                          E
But we can't keep the embers from catching
     F                       E
The truth from destroying us all
     Am                    E
Do I die as the martyr or miscreant?
               Dm                  E
I'll make the call, I'll make the call

Chorus
C                                      C D
Far from the ash I will be born again
G                      C    G G
 Where every debt is repaid
D                                       Em D
Nothing left to keep me out of paradise
    C
As portraits of the past fade away

C                                         C D
Far beyond the act I will be whole again
G                      C    G G
 A phoenix out of the flame
     D                                 Em D
I'm burying that menace in my memory
   C
A funeral held in my name
           Em
held in my name
