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