[INTRO]
Fm

[VERSE 1]
     Ab                              Gb
Your light is burning out fast as it is bright
                          Fm
Surrender yourself to the night like you want
                      Ab
Nothing is turned out    right!
         Ab                             Gb
And your eyes are staring as sharp as a knife
                             Fm
And everything is going just like you had planned it
                                Ab
But something just doesn't feel    right


[CHORUS]
   Db
So take, take
                               Ab
You're having the time of your life
   Db
So take, take
                               Ab
Till everything starts to feel right
         Gb           Fm        Ab
But it's not what you wanted to be


[VERSE 2]
     Ab                         Gb
Your eyes darting around in the night
                            Fm
Looking for friends who are ghosts from the past life
    Gb             Ab    Gb             Ab    Gb             Ab
But nobody ever arrives, nobody ever arrives, nobody ever arrives


[CHORUS]
   Db
So take, take
                               Ab
You're having the time of your life
   Db
So take, take
                               Ab
Till everything starts to feel right
         Gb           Fm        Ab
But it's not what you wanted to be!
            Gb           Fm          Ab
No, this is not what the good people see
            Gb           Fm
No, this is not what you wanted


[BRIDGE]
    Gb                                                   Ab
And climbing the walls and you scream like you wanna get out
        Gb                                                   Ab
But you can't and you won't, cause you never lived and never knew how
         Gb
No, they won't teach you that, no, they won't teach you that
         Ab
No, they won't
         Gb                             Ab
No, they won't teach that to a boy like you


[CHORUS]
   Db
So take, take
                               Ab
You're having the time of your life
   Db
So take, take
                               Ab
Till everything starts to feel right
         Gb           Fm        Ab
But it's not what you wanted to be!
            Gb           Fm          Ab
No, this is not what the good people see
            Gb           Fm        Ab
No, this is not what you wanted to be
           Gb             Fm
Nothing is quite what you wanted
