[Verse 1]
E C#m I killed my first monster when I was seven years old E B He melted like butter in my bathroom's sixty-watt bulb E C#m Kept a three-cell MagLite from Daddy's workshop drawer E B Under my pillow and I'd pull it like a sword
[Chorus]
A E B C#m Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night A E B E Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light A E B C#m I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said A E A B E A 'Cause I've learned that the monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed
[Verse 2]
E A The wolf hunts a hungry man and the devil a lonely heart E B A minefield of bad decisions lay hidin' in the dark E A Greed stalks, sickness steals, and pride lays a wicked trap E B E You can't avoid 'em all, no, you gotta trust me on that
[Chorus]
A E B C#m Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night A E B E Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light A E B C#m I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said A E B C#m 'Cause I've learned that the monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed A E B E I've learned that the monsters ain't underneath the bed
[Verse 3]
E A Daddy, check my closet, leave on the bathroom light E B I smile and say "All clear" when I tuck him in for the night E A But Daddy, I'm still scared, can I sleep with you instead? E A I kneel down beside my little man and I bow my head
[Chorus]
A E B C#m Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night A E B E Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light A E B C#m I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said A E B C#m 'Cause I've learned that the monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed A E B E I've learned that the monsters ain't underneath the bed
