Artist: David Bazan
Song: Forest Fires
G                     C                      Am
Used to Feel like a Smoker, Shivering in the Cold
                    D                       G
Waiting Outside the Bar, Till the openers over.
                    C                             Am
Now you feel like a drinker, Twenty Days off the Sauce
                    D              D9              C
Down at the liqour store, Tryin to call your sponsor
                    D           G
Used to feel like a Forest Fire burning
    Em   Bm                  C
But now, now you feel like a child
         D                 G
Throwing tantrums for your turn.
G  G/C

G                      C                             Am
Used to Sound like a prophet and everyone wanted to know
                        D                              G
how you could tell the truth without loosing the soft glow
                    C                        Am
Now you feel like salesman, closing another deal.
                    D             D9              C
Or some drunk fisherman, chasing after the white whale
                     D           G
used to feel like a forest fire burning
     Em  Bm                  C              D                  C
but now, now you feel like a child throwing tantrums for your turn
                     D         G
used to feel like a prodigal returning
    Em    Bm                   C             D                C
but now, now you hate what you made and you want to watch it burn
D       D9       G
want to watch it burn
