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