David Archuleta - Beast

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
Bm G A Em

[Verse]
Bm G
I don’t wanna be the bad guy, I wanna be the one who’s gonna chase all the demons away
A Em
Be the hero in the dark night, but there’s a side of me that you haven’t seen
Bm G
There’s a villain that’s hidden, intimacy is the trigger (and I can’t control)
A Em
There’s a monster that’s sleeping, if he wakes up he’s a killer (you’re too close)

[Chorus]
Bm G
I know there’s a beast inside that I have to hide but it won’t leave me alone
A Em
Clawing through my skin at night, overtakes my mind and it just won’t let me go
Bm G
So maybe you should run away, I’ll tear your heart out if you stay with me
A
You’re gonna see the beast inside
Em
You’re gonna see the beast inside of me (the beast inside of me)

[Verse]
Bm G A
Girl you hit me like a full moon, I feel it in my blood everytime I get close to you
Em
Scared of the damage that I could do and you’ll hate me forever now baby
Bm G
I’ll turn you into the villain, blame you for things that you didn’t (even do)
A Em
Another innocent victim, a tragic story gets written (we both lose)

[Chorus]
Bm G
I know there’s a beast inside that I have to hide but it won’t leave me alone
A Em
Clawing through my skin at night, overtakes my mind and it just won’t let me go
Bm G
So maybe you should run away, I’ll tear your heart out if you stay with me
A
You’re gonna see the beast inside
Em
You’re gonna see the beast inside of me (the beast inside of me)

Bm

[Bridge]

Dangerous, don’t wanna hurt you but I’m dangerous

Dangerous, stay away, I’ll hurt you ’cause I’m dangerous

[Chorus]
Bm G
I know there’s a beast inside that I have to hide but it won’t leave me alone
A Em
Clawing through my skin at night, overtakes my mind and it just won’t let me go
Bm G
So maybe you should run away, I’ll tear your heart out if you stay with me
A
You’re gonna see the beast inside
Em
You’re gonna see the beast inside of me (the beast inside of me)
