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