C                    Am
Well i don't need nobody to rescue me,
           D               Am
Or help me see the way you treat me.
      C                   Am
But i do need somebody to help me say
     D            Am
It's time to walk away (alright, okay)

Am 
Too many times
Am
Too many times
Am
Too many times
C                     G
You crossed over that line
Am
You changed your mind
Am
You changed your mind
Am
You changed your mind
C                      G
But i never did change mine

            C            F
Still i was saved by the fire
G                      C
Singing its song in my heart
          C             F
That hypnotized all the demons
    G          C
And tore them apart
                           Am
But you make them all come back
                  C
You make them all return
                  Am
You're so good at that
                 C
And i will never learn
           G  G/F                  Am
No i never will (i never will, baby)

       C                    Am
Well i don't need nobody to heal my pride
          D              Am
Cause i'm playing dead inside
      C
But i do need somebody
        Am          D
To come wake me up, shake me up
           Am
Help me to stand up, stand up

Am
You put me down
Am
You cut me down
Am
You turned me down
C                G
And i still stick around

Am
You tame my soul
Am
Swallowed me whole
Am
I lost control
C                            G
And i still couldn't let you go

      C                F
But i was saved by the fire
         G                        C
That was burning deep inside of myself
        C          F
I was a knave to desire
        G                         C
But i finally got a little bit of help

                  Am
You ripped out my tongue
                           C
You couldn't trust me with that
                   Am
You hid your trust fund 
                            C
I wouldn't a judged you for that
                 Am
You made me feel dumb
                    C 
Well i ain't new to that
                     Am
I must-a treated you wrong
                                       C
And now you’re treating me wrong right back
Am
Two many times, three many times, four many times
C            G
I'm about to crack
Am      
Eight many times, nine many times
Too many times
C      G
I lost track

                 C            F
Still yes, i was saved by the fire
        G              C
Burning deep inside my soul
           C            F
Yeah i was saved by the fire
        G              C
Burning deep inside my soul
(yeah, i know, yeah i know)
Yes i was saved by the fire
Burning deep inside my soul…
