Lyrics & Chords

Full Song

Verse 1

 
Em
No one knows what it’s like
G D
To be the bad man, to be the sad man
C A
Behind blue eyes
Em
No one knows what it’s like
G D
To be hated, to be fated
C A
To telling only lies
 

Chorus

 
C D
But my dreams, they aren’t as empty
G E A
As my conscience seems to be
Bm C
I have hours, only lonely
D A
My love is vengeance that’s never free
 

Verse 2

 
Em
No one knows what it’s like
G D
To feel these feelings like I do
C A
And I blame you
Em
No one bites back as hard
G D
On their anger, none of my pain and woe
C A
Can show through
