[Verse]
DI made an agreement with a demon that I coGuldn't write
BmAnd for the past six years I've cursed my liGfe
DHe said I couldn't sing and I told him he Gwas right
BmI gave him ears and listened to his liGes
[Chorus]
DThere's time things can be restGored
BmThis is wisdom: you will seGrve what you adore
DI'm freely given what I can't affoGrd
Bm"Slow down child, you don't haGve to work for love
AnyDmoreG  
AnyBmmoreG  
AnyDmoreG  
AnyBmmoreG"
[Verse]
DBlood as sweet as honey in exchange for biGtter wine
BmFrom three nails it flows and gives me liGfe
DA little bag of money and I coGuldn't decline
BmI traded in love for a worthless liGe
[Chorus]
DThere's time things can be reGstored
BmThis is wisdom: you will Gserve what you adore
DI'm freely given what I can't afGford
Bm"Slow down child, you don't Ghave to work for love
AnyDmoreG  
AnyBmmoreG  
AnyDmoreG  
AnyBmmoreG"
