Capo 3
[Refrain]
I ain't Amlike that anymore
I don't E7kick off like before
I'm more Frelaxed, I'm all Greformed
I ain't a Amfirestorm
I Amplayed a show in CClub Delaney
GLong, but still they Amwould not pay me
They said Gtimes were tough and I said tough times just AmaboundF  
They Amsaid it's all misCunderstanding
And GI should not be Amso demanding
In the Gold days Iâd have E7burned the bastards Amdown
I ain't Amlike that anymore
I don't E7kick off like before
I'm more Frelaxed, I'm all Greformed
I ain't a Amfirestorm
I Ammade my way from CSpain to France
A Gnaked sort of Ampaper dance
There were Gstamps to beg for and palms demanding AmgreaseF  
They Amsaid there's nothing Cthey could do
They sGaid there's tricks that Amget you through
Was a tGime I would have E7nailed those palms to Amtrees
I ain't Amlike that anymore
I don't E7kick off like before
I'm more Frelaxed, I'm all Greformed
I ain't a Amfirestorm
Cause Amnow you've turned my Ceyes to see
A Gwider view, a Amkinder scene
I uGsed to blame the forest for the AmtreesF  
But Amyou hold my hand and Cstep me back
A Glove that lights a Amcharcoal past
A Gtrail of ash and E7burned down Ammemories
[Bridge]
I Gused to flap my tongue like fists of Fflint against the granite fools
Until sGparks blazed in my Ameyes, itâs true
GBut now Iâm done with that, I havenât
AmTorched the woods to kill one rabbit
GNot for years, not until they E7came and fucked with you
I'm still Amlike that some I know
There's still E7kindling in my soul
It burns Fquiet, it burns Gslow
Until a Amfirestorm exFplodGesF  G  F  G  Am
