[Verse 1]
F# F#sus2 F#add6 Bsus2
I didn't mean to give my soul away
F#m7 F#m7 B9/F# B/F# Bm7/F# Bm9/F#
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
Bm7/F# F# F#6add9 F#m6 Bsus4
And I need to let you know I was wrong
C# C#sus4 C#
It's a sham
F# F#sus2 F#add6 Bsus2
They stole my heart and took control away
F#m7 F#m7 B9/F# B/F# Bm7/F# Bm9/F#
And when I lost the life that everybody wants
Bm7/F# F#
Well, you'd think they'd help you out
F#6add9 F#m6 Bsus4 C# C#sus4 C#
But they don't give a damn
[Chorus]
D F#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
D F#m
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
D F#m
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
B
Then sit back and watch you burn
D F#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
D F#m
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
D F#m
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
B
They'll just smile and watch you burn
[Verse 2]
F# F#sus2 F#add6 Bsus2
You can't believe a single word they say
F#m7 F#m7 B9 B/F# Bm7/F# Bm9/F#
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
Bm7/F# F# F#6add9 Bm6
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
F#sus4 C# C#sus4 C#
It's a scam
F# F#sus2 F#add6 Bsus2
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
F#m7 F#m7 B9/F# B/F# Bm7/F# Bm9/F#
And you become the one that everybody talks
Bm7/F# F#
By then there's no way out
F#6add9 F#m6 Bsus4 C#
It's all part of the plan
[Chorus]
D F#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
D F#m
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
D F#m
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
B
Then sit back and watch you burn
D F#m
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
D F#m
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
D F#m
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
B C#
They'll just smile and watch you burn
