[Verse 1]
G
Hey you with the world on your shoulders
C
Do you find it hard to deal
G
With growing expectations
G G/F# Em
And a vision that isn’t real?
G
Are you tired of looking in the mirror
C
To only see a ghost
G Em
For a day in the sun the person you’ve become
G D C
Is the person you hate the most
[Chorus]
C G
You walk the streets of gold
D Em
But the living bleeds you dry
C G
It casts you in a hole
D C
Where dreams go to die
B7 G
Where dreams go to die
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
G
Hey you with the stars in your eyes
C
Do you find it hard to sleep
G
When your plans aren’t coming together
G G/F# Em
‘Cause of promises you can’t keep
G
The promise of another revolution
C
The pride before the fall
G Em
You stuck up for the masses; you stood up for your friends
G D C
But now you hate them all
[Chorus]
C G
You walk the streets of gold
D Em
But the living bleeds you dry
C G
It casts you in a hole
D C
Where dreams go to die
B7 G
Where dreams go to die
