(verse 1) 
G 
You're everything I wanna be, 
A 
But that's not true at all, 
E 
I've held you high, 
C 
I built a lie, 
G 
You're nothing like you used to be, 
A 
And that's not right at all, 
E 
You've given in, 
C 
You've let them win, 
C                                         D 
And I'm sorry that these words are coming out of my mouth, 
C                           D   
     But I don't want to be like you, 
C                           D           C D  (Stop) 
I'm sorry that I'm just now figuring out, 

D E C Someone else can save the world, G D I won't sell my soul for this, C I wasn't meant to make them happy, D I wasn't meant to make them money, D E C Someone else can let it all go, G D Trade themselves for one more show, C D But I wasn't meant to throw myself away, D E C For one meager shot at fame. D
(verse 2) G I thought you could think for yourself, A And fight for what you loved, E They're using you, C You know they do, G And I don't think I want to take, D The same road that you're on, A B E C It can't be worth, the way you hurt, C D And I'm sorry that these words are coming out of my mouth, C D But I don't want to be like you, C D C D I'm sorry that I'm just now figuring out,
D E C Someone else can save the world, G D I won't sell my soul for this, C I wasn't meant to make them happy, D I wasn't meant to make them money, D E C Someone else can let it all go, G D Trade themselves for one more show, C D But I wasn't meant to throw myself away, For one meager shot at fame.
(Bridge) C D Do you even remember why you wanted to get this far in the first place? C D Do you even remember why you wanted to be a rock star in the first place? C Well it's not too late... (Slower) (Chorus) B B E C 'Cuz someone else can save the world, G D Don't you sell yourself for this, (Faster) C You weren't meant to make them happy, D C You weren't meant to make them money, E C 'Cuz someone else can let it all go, G D Trade themselves for one more show, C D But you weren't meant to throw yourself away, C B No, we weren't meant to throw ourselves away, C E For one meager shot at fame. C D E C D Oh, one meager shot at fame, fame oh, fame. E B E
