verse 1
B B2
I didn't mean to give my soul away
Bm7 E9/B E/B Em7/B Em9/B
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
Em7/B B Bm6 B4
And I need to let you know I was wrong
F# F#4 F#
It's a sham
B B2
They stole my heart and took control away
Bm7 E9/B E/B Em7/B Em9/B
And when I lost the life that everybody wants
Em7/B B
Well, you'd think they'd help you out
Bm6 B4 F# F#4 F#
But they don't give a damn
G Bm
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
G Bm
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
G Bm
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
E
Then sit back and watch you burn
G Bm
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
G Bm
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
G Bm
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
E
They'll just smile and watch you burn
verse 2
B B2
You can't believe a single word they say
Bm7 E9 E/B Em7/B Em9/B
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
Em7/B B Bm6
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
B4 F# F#4 F#
It's a scam
B B2
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
Bm7 E9/B E/B Em7/B Em9/B
And you become the one that everybody talks
Em7/B B
By then there's no way out
Bm6 B4 F#
It's all part of the plan
G Bm
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
G Bm
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
G Bm
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
E
Then sit back and watch you burn
G Bm
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
G Bm
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
G Bm
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
E F#
They'll just smile and watch you burn
