[Verse 1]
G#m
You think you're pretty special don't you?
Handsome face and fairly cultured
B
The devil in the dark
G#m
When we talk I'm reminded why
I thought it'd be you to take me high
B
You were an angel in the night
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m G#m
But when I die
B
Oh when I die
F#
Don't waste your flowers on me
[Verse 2]
G#m
And you found yourself another man
Well that's okay, I understand
B
I didn't want you anyway
G#m
When I get high I still see you there
With your pretty face and your cultured stare
B
Oh and then you just fade away
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
Oh when I die
B
Oh when I die
F#
Don't waste your flowers on me
G#m
Oh when I go
B
Don't let me go
F# E
Put your arms around me, yeah
[Chorus]
C#m B F#
'Cause I don't want to be an island
C#m B F#
But you fuel the silence
G#m
It was you all dark and alone
B
You question why we bothered at all
C#m B F#
Because I don't want to be an island
[Bridge]
E B F#
I forget where was and for a moment I was lost
E B F# E
Oh I forget where I was and for a moment I was lost
C#m B F#
C#m B F#
C#m B F#
No I don't want to be an island
C#m B F# B
No I don't want to be an island
C#m B F#
C#m B F#
[Outro]
G#m
You think you're pretty special don't you?
Handsome face and faded culture
B E
The devil in the dark
