Am         C              G
Losing a star without a sky
Am          C        G
Losing the reasons why
Am                 C                        G
You're losing the calling that you've been faking
             Am   C G
And I'm not kidding

It's damned if you don't, it's damned if you do
Be true 'cause they'll lock you up in a sad, sad zoo
Oh, hidy-hidy-hidy, whatcha trying to prove?
By hidy-hidy-hiding you're not worth a thing

Am        C               G
Sew your fortunes on a string
    Dm
And hold them up to light
Am     C
Blue smoke will take
   G            Dm
A very violent flight
                 Am    C        G
And you will be changed and everything
         Am
And you will be
           C    G
In a very sad, sad zoo

  Am        C         G       D
I once was lost, but now I'm found
     Am         C     G
Was blind, but now I see you

Am   C          G D
How selfish of you
     Am            C         G             D
To believe in the meaning of all the bad dreaming

Metal heart, you're not hiding
Metal heart, you're not worth a thing
Metal heart, you're not hiding
Metal heart, you're not worth a thing
Metal heart, you're not hiding
Metal heart, you're not worth a thing
