Introduction A#m D#m

A#m                                 D#m
Why are we so obsessed with cutting skin
A#m                                         D#m
When the real things in our lives can't get in

Pre Chorus
A#m
Marching to the same drum
G#
Every single beat's gone
F#
I can hear the dark days coming
A#m
Another generation
G#
Fighting for attention
F#
Can't you see I'm tired of running?

F#
There's a house in the forest
           A#m
Where her days are forgotten
        D#m
By the lake, she dropped her dreams
                 Fm
And now they've sunk to the bottom

Chorus
    A#m
Oh, beauty queen
           G#
It's only skin deep
           F#maj7
It's only thin sheets
             G#
There's no audience
     A#m
Oh, beauty queen
              G#
Something's telling me
               F#maj7
That you were never meant to be
            G#
Trapped in time


A#m                 G#               F#
Why are we holding hands like paper chains?
A#m             G#                 F#
Why are we so content to stay the same?

           F#
There's a girl I remember
         A#m
Who was everyone's dream
         D#m
Now her face has become her
           G#
It's the saddest thing you'll ever see

Chorus
    A#m
Oh, beauty queen
           G#
It's only skin deep
           F#maj7
It's only thin sheets
             G#
There's no audience
     A#m
Oh, beauty queen

Something's telling me
               F#maj7
That you were never meant to be
