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