[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G Bm Em G Bm C I think sometimes I'd been better off being born blind G Bm Em G Bm C Then I wouldn't have these dark images run through my mind Am Em Am Bm Lost and greed and anger, and violence within reach Fmaj7 Em C D/C C D/C Full dark would seem like sunrise on an Ibizan beach
[Verse 2]
G Bm Em G Bm C And the things I see that others see while looking at their phone G Bm Em G Bm C Disturbing lost childhood dreams and being all alone Am Em Am Bm The joy of laughter, innocence, lighthearted interaction Fmaj7 Em C D/C C D/C Crushed beneath the force of the addict's satisfaction
[Chorus]
Bm F#m Look away, look away, I challenge you to try Bm F#m Look the other way, and look somebody in the eye Em F#m E Esus4 E Esus4 And while you're at it, please consider taking me along C D7 I tried to look away but the pull was much too strong

[Verse 3]
Am Em Am Bm And words that better never should have been spoken at all Fmaj7 Em C D/C C D/C Are written in the toilets of every school and nursery wall
[Chorus]
Bm F#m Look away, look away, I challenge you to try Bm F#m Look the other way, and look somebody in the eye Em F#m E Esus4 E Esus4 And while you're at it, please consider taking me along C D7 I tried to look away but the pull was much too strong
