[Verse 1]
A# A#sus2 A#add6 Bsus2
I didn't mean to give my soul away
A#m7 A#m7 D#9/A# D#/A# D#m7/A# D#m9/A#
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
D#m7/A# A# A#6add9 A#m6 Bsus4
And I need to let you know I was wrong
F Fsus4 F
It's a sham
A# A#sus2 A#add6 Bsus2
They stole my heart and took control away
A#m7 A#m7 D#9/A# D#/A# D#m7/A# D#m9/A#
And when I lost the life that everybody wants
D#m7/A# A#
Well, you'd think they'd help you out
A#6add9 A#m6 Bsus4 F Fsus4 F
But they don't give a damn
[Chorus]
F# A#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F# A#m
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F# A#m
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
D#
Then sit back and watch you burn
F# A#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F# A#m
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F# A#m
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
D#
They'll just smile and watch you burn
[Verse 2]
A# A#sus2 A#add6 Bsus2
You can't believe a single word they say
A#m7 A#m7 D#9 D#/A# D#m7/A# D#m9/A#
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
D#m7/A# A# A#6add9 Bm6
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
A#sus4 F Fsus4 F
It's a scam
A# A#sus2 A#add6 Bsus2
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
A#m7 A#m7 D#9/A# D#/A# D#m7/A# D#m9/A#
And you become the one that everybody talks
D#m7/A# A#
By then there's no way out
A#6add9 A#m6 Bsus4 F
It's all part of the plan
[Chorus]
F# A#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F# A#m
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F# A#m
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
D#
Then sit back and watch you burn
F# A#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F# A#m
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F# A#m
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
D# F
They'll just smile and watch you burn
