C#m B Empty bottles on a dusty wooden floor F#m C#m A remedy I've tried too many times C#m B Echos in my mind of shouts and slamming doors F#m C#m I've done better with goodbye Now the sun is heading back into its grave It’s a cold october night Taste the autumn air and hope to find a way To keep the dark out of my mind Chorus: A Kerosene C#m Kerosene She lit me up B She left me numb A E I call her kerosene Light a candle as I lay me down to sleep Watch the room begins to glow Listen quietly to wind and rustling leaves In the silence I’m at home In my dreams I see her standing by the fire Granite eyes reflect the flames Humming softly 'til the embers start to tire A faded memory that I saved Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA C#m E F#m B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
