[Verse 1]
D G Em A
I am sad alright, but what a waste of time
D G Em A
I held you much too close and now there's something missing
D G Em A D G Em A
But I can't see the empty space, something else has taken place
[Verse 2]
D G Em A
I am sad alright, but what a waste of tears
D G Em A
I held you much too close and now there's someone missing
D G Em A D G Em A
She is gone without a trace, just the expression on her face, what a waste
[Pre Chorus]
D G Em A
There's a flame there’s a fire, there’s a body burning up
D G Em A
And a bird on a shape made of steel ohoh, he keeps on singing
[Chorus]
D G Em A D
It's not exactly what you think, not exactly what you see
G Em A D
It’s not exactly what you've learned, and what you will be learning
G Em A D
No - not exactly what you think, no - not exactly what you see
G Em A D
It’s not exactly what you've learned, and what you will be learning

D G Em A
I am sad alright, but what a waste of breath

I'm only talking to relieve, although there's no one listening
D G Em A D G Em A
He is gone without a trace, just the expression on his face
[Pre Chorus]
D G Em A
There's a flame there’s a fire, there’s a body burning up

And a bird on a shape made of steel ohoh, ohoh he keeps on singing
D G Em A D G Em A
No not exactly, no not exactly, no not exactly, no not exactly
[Chorus]
D G Em A D
It's not exactly what you think, not exactly what you see
