Biography:
Avantasia, from Germany, is the side-project of Edguy singer Tobias Sammet, founded in 1999. Two concept albums were released (The Metal Opera, The Metal Opera Pt. II), their structures similar to that of an opera. Both can be classified as Power Metal and/or Symphonic Metal. After the second album, Sammet announced that there would not be any more Avantasia albums. However, in January 2008 a third album was released, titled The Scarecrow. On November 16th 2007 two 6-track albums Lost in Space Part 1 and Lost in Space Part 2 were released.

Tuning: Standard EADGBE
[Intro]
C Am Em G x2
C
I sold my soul for diamonds
Am
And reason for acclaim
Em
Been begging for white angels
G
To blow my mind away
C
Been growing funny flowers
Am
Where roses never grew
Em
I stayed awake all night
G
When I woke up from dreams
Of me and you
Dm Em F
I tried to take the sun and I went blind
Dm Em F G
God help me to erase you from my mind
F
I'm growing cold
And the night is yet to come
C
Anyone tell me is this
[Chorus]
G
The way it's meant to be
Am
Lost and isolated
G F
I'm way too complicated
G C
For you to lean on me
G
I play a losing game
Dm
I cried in desperation
Em F
Mental devastation
C G
I'm blowing out the flame
C
Self-pity gave me shelter
Am
I always hid away in vice
Em
Dyslexic, torn and tattered
G F
I tried to read the signs
C
You never tried to take a look
Am
At the one I'd have died to be
Em G
Now it seems you don't see me at all
Dm
Was it all worth it
Em F
Visions holding sway
Dm Em F G
When the real thing got lost along the way
F C
Yes anyone tell me is this
[Chorus]
G
The way it's meant to be
Am
Lost and isolated
G F
I'm way too complicated
G C
For you to lean on me

I play a losing game

Mental devastation
