[Verse 1: Eret]
Gm F
Ever since I was a kid
Dm Cm
I wanted to reach the stars
Gm F
I was born to sit on a throne
Dm Cm
Not collect battle scars
Gm F
Your loyalty is cute
Dm Cm
But it's what makes you weak
Gm F
Friendship means nothing
Dm Cm
'Cause it's power that I seek
[Chorus: Eret]
Gm Dm
It was never meant to be
Fm Cm
Now I'm king of the SMP
Gm Dm
This was my destiny
F Cm
So it was never meant to be
[Verse 2: Wilbur]
Gm F
L'Manburg once was beautiful
Dm Cm
And good and pure
Gm F
But now that it's perverted
Dm Cm
I have nothing to live for
Gm F
My nation no longer exists
Dm Cm
This imitation must burn
Gm F
Maybe when their world turns to ash
Dm Cm
They'll all finally learn
[Chorus: Wilbur]
Gm Dm
It was never mеant to be
F Cm
My great unfinished symphony
Gm Dm
My country will diе with me
F Cm
'Cause it was never meant to be
[Verse 3: Niki]
Gm F
Wil tried to set us free
Dm Cm
But these men won't let go
Gm F
Even if we rebuild
Dm Cm
This will never again be our home
Gm F
There's nothing left
Dm Cm
But a ghost
Gm F
The last piece destroyed
Dm Cm
By the girl who loved it most
[Chorus: Niki]
Gm Dm
It was never meant to be
F Cm
That's why I burned down that damned tree
Gm Dm
Nothing left but a memory
F Cm
For it was never meant to be
