You're a big metal _ _ _ dreamer, the guy that hurts the most, _ but not how it _ feels.
_ Well, [Bm] no one _ _
[F#] _ _ [Bm] to _ blame, _
[F#] _ only [Bm] to [F#] see _ _ _ with my _ _ eyes.
_ [Bm] Wake up, wake up, wake [F#m] up, [E] wake up inside the dungeon.
[A] _ Remind me we [F#m] are inside the dungeon.

[A] You _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ may [Em] say the last words [F#m] _
_ of your [B] dream [F#] is not what I mean.
It's not what [Em] I say, it's not what [A] I believe.
It's not what [B] I [C#] do, it's not what I can [F#] be.
