Chords
[Verse 1]
EI killed my first monster when I C#m7was seven years old
He Emelted like butter in my bathroom's Bsixtywatt bulb
Kept a Ethreecell MagLite from Daddy'sC#m7 workshop drawer
EUnder my pillow and I'd Bpull it like a Esword
[Chorus]
AnymoreA when a restlessE feelin' Bkeeps me up at C#mnight
AFallin' on my Eknees is my new Bturnin' on the Alight
I keep my Afaith intact,E make Bsure my prayers are C#msaid
'Cause AI've learned that the Emonsters ain't the Aones beneathB the bed
[Verse 2]
E C#m7 The Ewolf hunts a hungry man and the C#m7devil a lonely heart
A Eminefield of bad decisions lay Bhidin' in the dark
EGreed stalks, sickness steals, and pride C#m7lays a wicked trap
You Ecan't avoid 'em all, no, you gotta Btrust me on Ethat
[Chorus]
AnymoreA when a restlessE feelin' Bkeeps me up at C#mnight
AFallin' on my Eknees is my new Bturnin' on the Alight
I keep my Afaith intact,E make Bsure my prayers are C#msaid
'Cause AI've learned that the Emonsters ain't the Aones beneathB the bed

[Verse 3]
EDaddy, check my closet, leave C#m7on the bathroom light
E I smile and say "All clear" when I Btuck him in for the night
But EDaddy, I'm still scared, can I C#m7sleep with you instead?
I kneel Edown beside my little man and BI bow my head
[Chorus]
AnymoreA when a restlessE feelin' Bkeeps me up at C#mnight
AFallin' on my Eknees is my new Bturnin' on the Alight
I keep my Afaith intact,E make Bsure my prayers are C#msaid
'Cause AI've learned that the Emonsters ain't the Aones beneathB the bed
C#m AI've learned that the Emonsters ain't the Aones beneathB the bed
