Intro G, Am, Em, C
(Verse 1)
G
You're everything I wanna be,
Am
But that's not true at all,
Em
I've held you high,
C
I built a lie,
G
You're nothing like you used to be,
Am
And that's not right at all,
Em
You've given in,
C
You've let them win,
C D
And I'm sorry that these words are coming out of my mouth,
C D
But I don't want to be like you,
C D C D (Stop)

Someone else can let it all go,
G D
Trade themselves for one more show,
C D
But I wasn't meant to throw myself away,

For one meager shot at fame.
