[Verse 1]
C# C#sus2 C#add6 Bsus2
I didn't mean to give my soul away
C#m7 C#m7 F#9/C# F#/C# F#m7/C# F#m9/C#
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
F#m7/C# C# C#6add9 C#m6 Bsus4
And I need to let you know I was wrong
G# G#sus4 G#
It's a sham
C# C#sus2 C#add6 Bsus2
They stole my heart and took control away
C#m7 C#m7 F#9/C# F#/C# F#m7/C# F#m9/C#
And when I lost the life that everybody wants
F#m7/C# C#
Well, you'd think they'd help you out
C#6add9 C#m6 Bsus4 G# G#sus4 G#
But they don't give a damn
[Chorus]
A C#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
A C#m
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
A C#m
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
F#
Then sit back and watch you burn
A C#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
A C#m
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
A C#m
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
F#
They'll just smile and watch you burn
[Verse 2]
C# C#sus2 C#add6 Bsus2
You can't believe a single word they say
C#m7 C#m7 F#9 F#/C# F#m7/C# F#m9/C#
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
F#m7/C# C# C#6add9 Bm6
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
C#sus4 G# G#sus4 G#
It's a scam
C# C#sus2 C#add6 Bsus2
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
C#m7 C#m7 F#9/C# F#/C# F#m7/C# F#m9/C#
And you become the one that everybody talks
F#m7/C# C#
By then there's no way out
C#6add9 C#m6 Bsus4 G#
It's all part of the plan
[Chorus]
A C#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
A C#m
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
A C#m
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
F#
Then sit back and watch you burn
A C#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
A C#m
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
A C#m
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
F# G#
They'll just smile and watch you burn
