[Verse 1]
  G#mLet's write the sEongs that they wantB  
I thought they'd lEove us but theC#my don't, theEy don't
  G#mWith tails tucked bEetween our legsB  
We'll find a hEome made of rC#megret
We'll stay shEipwrecked and sC#minking
What a tF#errible thought to be thinking
[Chorus]
  EYou were wF#ith us but you lG#met these thBoughts in your head
  EWe're not who wF#e're supposed to bG#me
  EWith all the sF#ymptoms of the sG#mickness Bwe have seen
  EAre you better off C#mleaving?
[Verse 2]
  G#mTough words held bEehind my teethB  
Pleading thEat they be sC#met free, but they're Eempty
  G#mThat's what some Ealways will wantB  
A game of whEo's best with thC#meir taunts
That are fF#aceless and cred-less
[Chorus]
  EYou were wF#ith us but you lG#met these thBoughts in your head
  EWe're not who wF#e're supposed to bG#me
  EWith all the sF#ymptoms of the sG#mickness Bwe have seen
  EAre you better off C#mleaving?
[Bridge]
  BWith every song that you sing, it's yours to the heart (I can't walk away)
  D#mAnd when you fly or fall, then a new one will start (I can't walk away)
  G#mMy eyes burn with hope, that you hear what we say (I can't walk away)
  F#If this was just for the gain then may we never get paid (You can't walk away)
  BAnd the music that makes my feet move too (You can't walk away)
  D#mIs the same as the music that's inside of you (You can't walk away)
  G#mThe truth is that when you can't see past yourself (You can't walk away)
  F#Your song is the same as everyone else
[Verse 3]

[Verse 1]

G#m E B

Let's write the songs that they want

E C#m E

I thought they'd love us but they don't, they don't

G#m E B

With tails tucked between our legs

E C#m

We'll find a home made of regret

E C#m

We'll stay shipwrecked and sinking

What a terrible thought to be thinking

[Chorus]

E F# G#m B

You were with us but you let these thoughts in your head

E F# G#m

We're not who we're supposed to be

E F# G#m B

With all the symptoms of the sickness we have seen

E C#m

Are you better off leaving?

[Verse 2]

G#m E B

Tough words held behind my teeth

E C#m E

Pleading that they be set free, but they're empty

G#m E B

That's what some always will want

E C#m

A game of who's best with their taunts

That are faceless and cred-less

[Chorus]

E F# G#m B

You were with us but you let these thoughts in your head

E F# G#m

We're not who we're supposed to be

E F# G#m B

With all the symptoms of the sickness we have seen

E C#m

Are you better off leaving?

[Bridge]

With every song that you sing, it's yours to the heart (I can't walk away)

D#m

And when you fly or fall, then a new one will start (I can't walk away)

G#m

My eyes burn with hope, that you hear what we say (I can't walk away)

If this was just for the gain then may we never get paid (You can't walk away)

And the music that makes my feet move too (You can't walk away)

D#m

Is the same as the music that's inside of you (You can't walk away)

G#m

The truth is that when you can't see past yourself (You can't walk away)

Your song is the same as everyone else

[Verse 3]

Let's write the songs that they want

E C#m E

I thought they'd love us but they don't

You're better off leaving
