Chorus:
 D                        F#m
Oooh - at the end of the story
    Bm G Em            A
The boy goes down in flames
     D                 F#m
Oh why - why should I worry?
      Bm G Em         A
'cause I know I can change

       G
It's like a bad dream
I see you in her eyes
Every time we touch a bit of me dies
    Bm
I know it's all wrong
                     A
How did I become so mean?
 G
Middle of the night you come into my room
You get into my head
You crawl into my bed
      Bm
She's lying there asleep
So innocent and sweet
    A
I know it's all wrong

                       G
So why do I do what I do?
                      A
I never meant to be cruel
                      Bm           F#m
How do I start a new dawn without you?
                     G
I wanna hear a new sound
                     A
I wanna play a new round

Chorus

You've taken over me
I want you but I plead
Guilty for the fact she's caught up in between
Reality, the dream, the truth, the lie
The good and the obscene
But the shame aims at me like a gun
I wish I could escape but there's nowhere to run
And all these bitter lies
They can never be undone
Can't look her in the eyes
And I'll do anything to be there
I want you out of my head

Chorus - x2

D
Aaah
A             Bm
I know I can change
A              D
I know I can change
A             Bm
I know I can change
G  A  D
Aaaaah
