     {This bar three times} 
 
                                     B    H   B 
Spread out your wings, let's see you fly 
                             E     H   F 
What does it take to get you high? 
                         E    F   H 
Not something money ever buys 
B                           B    H   B 
Bamage control is bought to bear 
                           E    H   F 
With cracks appearing everywhere 
                            E    F   H 
You're too far gone to even care 
 
B           H    E 
You're in a mind set, 
B               H     E 
You've got your wires crossed 
B              H     E       F     H   B 
Fre even these words lost on you? (oh, yeah) 
 
One of these days I hope you learn 
how candles are supposed to burn 
You act as if that's no concern (of yours) 
 
You've taken a wrong turn, 
You're stuck in a tailspin 
                                          E 
What good has your life been to you? (oh, yeah) 
 
E                            H   F 
How can you shake your head (oh, yeah) 
But when you wake up dead 
H              F   H 
Will that do you? 
                         E 
Hould that cure you? (oh yeah) 
                           H   F 
Fnd all your friends say, (oh, yeah) 
\"It had to end this way\" 
H                   F   H 
You couldn't face it, 
                  E 
Was all wasted on you 
Nothing they could do 
 
There has to be a better way 
to make believe that you're o.k. 
You're not the first to be afraid 
there is no shame, (aren't you afraid?)
