[Chorus]
G#m E
You can't have glory without the pain
F# G#m
You can't have freedom without the chains
G#m E
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
F# G#m
This life is a balancing game

[Verse 1]
G#m E
I thought I could tip the scales, cheat the game

Have the sun without the rain
F#
Take your love and not exchange
G#m
My heart for yours, I guess that it's me to blame

[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
So this is what I've found
E
From the bridges I've burned down
F#
That it all comes back around
G#m
Now I know

[Chorus]
G#m E
You can't have glory without the pain
F# G#m
You can't have freedom without the chains
G#m E
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
F# G#m
This life is a balancing game

[Verse 2]
G#m
So then I called you up to make amends
E
Said "take me back" and you said "yes"
F#
Now I know just how it ends
G#m
You played the game like me, it was all pretend

[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
So this is what I've learned
E
You can't take and not return
F#
Because one day you'll get burned
