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