D         A         E      D                   E      D  A
 It was a beautiful letdown when I crashed and burned

       E            D                 E     D
When I found myself alone unknown and hurt

         A         E      D          E    D  A
It was a beautiful letdown the day I knew

             E                              D              E  D  A
That all the riches this world had to offer me would never do

~PRE-CHORUS~

     C#m                                   A
In a world full of bitter pain bitter doubt

      C#m                               F#
I was trying so hard to fit in to fit in

Until I found out that ~CHORUS~

(F#)      E        D          E         D A
I don't belong here I don't belong here

       E                   D                  E
I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong

           D   A
I don't belong

~VERSE~

(A)                E      Dsus2              E   Dsus2 A
It was a beautiful letdown when you found me here

         E                   Dsus2                 E    Dsus2
Yeah for once in a rare blue moon I see everything clear

          A         E      Dsus2                     E Dsus2 A
I'll be a beautiful letdown that's what I'll forever be

    E                     Dsus2              E   Dsus2 A
And though it may cost my soul I'll sing for free

~PRE-CHORUS~

(A)         C#m                             A
We're still chasing our tails in the rising sun

        C#m                                                       F#
And our dark water planet's still spinning in a race where no one wins

And no one's won see ~CHORUS~

          E        Dsus2      E     Dsus2 A
I don't belong here I don't belong

       E                   Dsus2                E
I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong

           A               E        Dsus2      E    
(I don't belong) I don't belong here I don't belong here

          Dsus2          E                 Dsus2                E
I don't belong I'm gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come

        Dsus2             E   Dsus2             E
Kingdom come Your kingdom come won't you let me down
