    G - Bm - Em       - C - G - D

 

    G                      Bm                         Em          

1.    How I wish I could surrender my soul,

C

    shed the clothes that become my skin,

G                                                       D              

    see the liar that burns within my needing !

G                           Bm                            - Em   

    How I wish I'd chosen darkness from        cold,

C

    how I wish I had screamed out loud,

G                                       D

    instead I've found no meaning !

 

                                G                   D                           Em

    I guess it's time I run far, far away, find comfort in pain,

                                 C

    all pleasure's the same, it just keeps me from trouble.

G                          Bm                        Em

    Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray,

                                       C

    I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble,

            G                     D                                   G    - D

    it's more than just words, it's just tears and rain.

 

   G                                         Bm                                Em      

2.   How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind,

C                                     

    hold memory close at hand,

G                                           D

    help me understand the years !

G                                                   Bm                      - Em    

    How I wish I could choose between Heaven and          Hell,

C

    how I wish I would save my soul,

G                              D

    I'm so cold from fear !
