[Intro] Dm Bb F C Dm Bb F C Dm Bb F C Dm Bb F C [Verse 1]
       Dm
Do you know what it's like

        Bb
Just to crawl through your life?

            F             C
Like a ghost, like a ghost

       Dm
I have beauty and rage

        Bb
Full of love, full of pain

            F             C
No-one knows, no-one knows
[Pre-Chorus]
     Dm             Bb
So I wrote a letter today

                       F
Wrote in blood just to say

                           C
I can't take this one more day
[Chorus]
    Dm              Bb
Far away, there's a place

          F
Where the lonely go,

              C
Where there's no way home

       Dm            Bb
No-one knows, no-one cares

        F
To know who I am

        C
So just take me there

Dm
'Cause now I have nothing left

Bb
And I am scared to death

F
Will they remember me?

C
Hanging my noose this week

Dm            Bb
Throw it all away, if I

F
Throw it all, all away

C
For 15 minutes of fame
[Instrumental] Dm Bb F C [Verse 2]
       Dm
Do you know how it feels

       Bb
No control of the wheel?

         F           C
I am lost, oh so lost

          Dm
Don't you call me a freak

        Bb
I don't choose to be weak

    F                   C
Holocaust, I'm your holocaust
[Pre Chorus]
      Dm
In my last and final will

       Bb
I will not be standing still

         F
For once I will finally be

          C
Something worth remembering
[Chorus]
     Dm             Bb
Far away, there's a place

          F
Where the lonely go,

              C
Where there's no way home

       Dm            Bb
No-one knows, no-one cares

        F
To know who I am

        C
So just take me there

Dm
'Cause now I have nothing left

Bb
And I am scared to death

Will they remember me?

Throw it all, all away

[Bridge]
      Dm
Was I born to be broken?

            Bb
Is this the life I deserve?

          F
To have a voice not worth hearing

   C
Is it so absurd

           Dm
To want my moment of glory

      Bb
If it costs me my soul?

  F                                                     C
A life condemned, that never was known
[Chorus]
    Dm              Bb
Far away, there's a place

          F
Where the lonely go,

              C
Where there's no way home

       Dm            Bb
No-one knows, no-one cares

        F
To know who I am
