Intro
C Am Em G x2
C
I sold my soul for diamonds
Am
And reason for acclaim
Em
Been begging for white angels
G
To blow my mind away
C
Been growing funny flowers
Am
Where roses never grew
Em
I stayed awake all night
G
When I woke up from dreams
Of me and you
Dm Em F
I tried to take the sun and I went blind
Dm Em F G
God help me to erase you from my mind
F
I'm growing cold
And the night is yet to come
C
Anyone tell me is this
[Chorus]
G
The way it's meant to be
Am
Lost and isolated
G F
I'm way too complicated
G C
For you to lean on me
G
I play a losing game
Dm
I cried in desperation
Em F
Mental devastation
C G
I'm blowing out the flame
C
Self-pity gave me shelter
Am
I always hid away in vice
Em
Dyslexic, torn and tattered
G F
I tried to read the signs
C
You never tried to take a look
Am
At the one I'd have died to be
Em G
Now it seems you don't see me at all
Dm
Was it all worth it
Em F
Visions holding sway
Dm Em F G
When the real thing got lost along the way
F C
Yes anyone tell me is this
[Chorus]
G
The way it's meant to be
Am
Lost and isolated
G F
I'm way too complicated
G C
For you to lean on me
G
I play a losing game
Dm
I cried in desperation
Em F
Mental devastation
