[Verse 1]
A Asus2 Aadd6 Bsus2
I didn't mean to give my soul away
Am7 Am7 D9/A D/A Dm7/A Dm9/A
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
Dm7/A A A6add9 Am6 Bsus4
And I need to let you know I was wrong
E Esus4 E
It's a sham
A Asus2 Aadd6 Bsus2
They stole my heart and took control away
Am7 Am7 D9/A D/A Dm7/A Dm9/A
And when I lost the life that everybody wants
Dm7/A A
Well, you'd think they'd help you out
A6add9 Am6 Bsus4 E Esus4 E
But they don't give a damn
[Chorus]
F Am
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F Am
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F Am
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
D
Then sit back and watch you burn
F Am
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F Am
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F Am
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
D
They'll just smile and watch you burn
[Verse 2]
A Asus2 Aadd6 Bsus2
You can't believe a single word they say
Am7 Am7 D9 D/A Dm7/A Dm9/A
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
Dm7/A A A6add9 Bm6
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
Asus4 E Esus4 E
It's a scam
A Asus2 Aadd6 Bsus2
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
Am7 Am7 D9/A D/A Dm7/A Dm9/A
And you become the one that everybody talks
Dm7/A A
By then there's no way out
A6add9 Am6 Bsus4 E
It's all part of the plan
[Chorus]
F Am
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F Am
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F Am
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
D
Then sit back and watch you burn
F Am
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
F Am
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
F Am
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
D E
They'll just smile and watch you burn
