Verse I:
Am Am
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth
Am F G
I need them mechanically make the words come out
Am Am
They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce
Am F G
Ignite me, licking up the flames they bring about
Pre-Chorus:
Am
I sold my soul to a three-piece
Am Am
And he told me I was holy
F
He’s got me down on both knees
G Am
But it’s the devil that’s tryna
Chorus:
Am
Hold me down, hold me down
C
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sounds
F
Knock me out, knock me out
F G Am
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
C
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
F
Knock me out, knock me out
F G Am
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Verse II:
Am
Selfish, taking what I want and call it mine
Am F G
I’m helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine
Am
They rush me, telling me I’m running out of time
Am F G
They shush me, walking me across a fragile line
Pre-Chorus:
Am
I sold my soul to a three-piece
Am Am
And he told me I was holy
F
He’s got me down on both knees
G Am
But it’s the devil that’s tryna
Chorus:
Am
Hold me down, hold me down
C
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sounds
F
Knock me out, knock me out

Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
C
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
F
Knock me out, knock me out
F G Am
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
