Burning The Candle At Both Ends

(play Am) Intro Am Am Am Am Am Am Am Am [Verso 1] Am I've been burning the candle at both ends Am One flame for whiskey one for sin Am Trying to keep two fires from dying down Am But I'm watching my whole house burn to the ground [Refrão] N.C. Am Burning the candle at both ends Am Playing with matches I can't defend Am D One girls leaving the other one stays C Bm Am I'm the wax dripping down in my own ash tray [Verso 2] Am Monday night I swore that I'd behave Am Tuesday night I dug a deeper grave Am Every lie a lie just flickers out fast Am And the smoke rolls thick when you living like that [Refrão] N.C. Am Burning the candle at both ends Am Playing with matches I can't defend Am D One girls leaving the other one stays C Bm Am I'm the wax dripping down in my own ash tray Instrumental Am Am Am Am Am Am Am Am [Ponte] F D Fire don't care who strikes the spark Am It will leave you blind in the midnight dark F D I chase the flame I thought I could win Am N.C. But I'm burning the candle at both ends [Verso 3] Am Yea you can juggle two lives Am But you can't out run the night Am Burn too hot you'll never mend N.C.
