the next few lines are played over the above chords:
Will I be alone this morning?
Will I need my (friends?)?
Something just to ease away my pain.
No-one ever sees the loneliness
Behind my face
I am just a prisoner to my fame
then pick through the following chords a few times:
: Dm C Gm Dm :
If [Dm]I could only stand,
and stare in the m[C]irror would I see
[Gm] One fallen h[C]ero with a f[Dm]ace like me
[Dm] And if I scream, could anybody h[C]ear me
[Gm] If I smash the s[C]ilence you'll see what f[Dm]ame has done to me
[Bb] Kiss away the p[C]ain and leave me l[Dm]onely
[Bb] I'll never kn[C]ow if loves a[Dm] lie.. being..
[Bb] crazy in p[C]aradise is e[Dm]asy
[Bb] do you see the pr[C]isoners in [Bb]my eye[Gm]
Dm C \
where's the love.. to shelter me X 2
give me l[Bb]ove... c[C]ome set me free /
then the solo..
