Bbm Db Bbm D  F
They may take evBberything from you,
they may tFake your time to think things through.
FThey'll telEl you eveEbrything that you want to hear,
until you teDmll them that what they saFy is true.
That's when the darBbkness comes to your loneliness,
and your giFven voice sounds so meaningless.
FThat's whEen they gEbive your mouth such an eloquence,
that you thiDmnk you sound just like your heFroes.
But don't give them your soBbul,Bb7  
don't give them your soDulD7.
Don't give them your sEboul,
Fsave that soul for mBbe.Ab  Gm  F  
I've goBbt those same five walls,
Fstare at the ceiling trying to transcend it all.
tFhat's wEhen your dEboubt creeps in, tells you to break your wings,
tells you you neDmed not try, because you're afrFaid to fall.
That's when the daBbrkness comes to your loneliness,
and your givFen voice sounds so meaningless.
FThat's Ewhen they gEbive your mouth such an eloquence,
that you thDmink you sound just like your herFoes.
But don't give them your sBboulBb7,
don't give them your soDulD7.
Don't give them your soEbul,
Fsave that soul for mBbe.Ab  Gm  F  
I may hurt you,
Fdarling I might leave you. F  E  
EbI might absentmindedly misFtreat you.
BbBut at the end of it all,
Fand at the end Fof the Eday,
EbI only want one thing.
FI just want you to be yBbou.
Don't give them your sBb7oul,
don't give them yoDur soD7ul.
Don't give them your soEbul,
Fsave that soul for Bbme.
