G          C                 G
Your expectations turn from grey to black
             C            D
You have to get your independence back
Em    A             Em            A
Realizations subtle as a heart attack
             C
It was not meant to be

G             C             G
She wants to be a star and paint the town
              C                 D
That kind of person throws themselves around
Em           A                  Em             A
And in your hard time know you want to settle down
            Am
It was not meant to be
C           Am
It was not meant to be
C           Am
It was not meant for you
         C            G Em A
And you are no island

D               Em                     A
And they're significantly less to prove
D               Em                     A
And they're significantly more to lose
D          Em                         A D
Walking a mile in someone else's shoes

Your expectations turn from grey to black
You have to get your independence back
Realizations subtle as a heart attack
It was not meant to be
It was not meant to be
It was not meant for you
And you are no island
And you are no island
And you are no island
