[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
BmThe feast is set before me
BmIt's on plates of platinum
BmBut all I taste is ashes and my lips are turning numb
EmThe smiles in the beauty and the promises I see
BmGlory, hallelujah never said it came for free
BmRing around the roses
BmI see through your poses
GAshes to ashes
It aF#ll comes falBmling downG  
[Pre-Chorus]
GI thought I would belong right hBmere
When I was yDoungeGr
But there's something in the atmBmosphere
Whispers of DwondeGr
[Chorus]
BmI, I am a foreigner
BmGot a fire in my soul, never gave it up
And I knGow I don't belong right here
I kGnow I don't belong right here
BmFly till I make it home
I keep my eBmyes to the skies even if I don't
And I knGow I don't belong right here
I knGow I don't belong right hereBm  
[Verse 2]
BmHold out your hand of riches and display your royalty
BmI'm fine with my bloodline in a different dynasty
EmWorship at the altar of your vanity
BmI'll be in the Promised Land and let You be
BmLondon bridge is falling down
BmMy fair lady holds her crown
GAshes to ashes
F#Where's your savior Bmnow?G  
[Pre-Chorus]
GI thought I would belong right hBmere
When I was yDoungeGr
But there's something in the atmBmosphere
Whispers of DwondeGr
[Chorus]
BmI, I am a foreigner
BmGot a fire in my soul, never gave it up
And I knGow I don't belong right here
I kGnow I don't belong right here

I keep my eBmyes to the skies even if I don't
And I knGow I don't belong right here
I knGow I don't belong right hereBm

DI, I fix my eBmyes
On the iGsland
BmHeavens

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

The feast is set before me

It's on plates of platinum

But all I taste is ashes and my lips are turning numb

The smiles in the beauty and the promises I see

Glory, hallelujah never said it came for free

Ring around the roses

I see through your poses

Ashes to ashes

F# Bm G

It all comes falling down

[Pre-Chorus]

G Bm

I thought I would belong right here

D G

When I was younger

But there's something in the atmosphere

D G

Whispers of wonder

[Chorus]

I, I am a foreigner

Got a fire in my soul, never gave it up

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here

Fly till I make it home

I keep my eyes to the skies even if I don't

And I know I don't belong right here

G Bm

I know I don't belong right here

[Verse 2]

Hold out your hand of riches and display your royalty

I'm fine with my bloodline in a different dynasty

Worship at the altar of your vanity

I'll be in the Promised Land and let You be

London bridge is falling down

My fair lady holds her crown

Ashes to ashes

F# Bm G

Where's your savior now?

[Pre-Chorus]

G Bm

I thought I would belong right here

D G

When I was younger

But there's something in the atmosphere

D G

Whispers of wonder

[Chorus]

I, I am a foreigner

Got a fire in my soul, never gave it up

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here

Fly till I make it home

I keep my eyes to the skies even if I don't

And I know I don't belong right here

G Bm

I know I don't belong right here

[Bridge]

D Bm

I, I fix my eyes

On the island

Heavens

D Bm

I, I fix my eyes

On the island

Heavens

[Chorus]

I, I am a foreigner

Got a fire in my soul, never gave it up

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here

Fly till I make it home

I keep my eyes to the skies even if I don't

And I know I don't belong right here

G Bm

I know I don't belong right here.
