Verse 1:
[Bm] It was good to be there in the [G] bright [D] lights, mmm
[Bm] But I lost good friends under the [G] [D] spotlight, woah
[Bm] Imagine if everybody [G] knew your [D] name
But they had [Bm] nothing nice to [G] say, nothing nice to [D] say
[Bm] It was good to be living up the [G] high [D] life, woah
[Bm] But the comedown's harder in the [G] [D] headlines, woah
[Bm] Everybody tells you, you should [G] play the [D] game
But there's [Bm] only you to [G] play, there's only you to [D] play
But I [Em] tried [G]
Chorus:
I set fire to the [Bm] glory
I set fire to the [G] dream
I set fire to the [D] only thing
That led me from the [A] streets
Don't tell me it's [Bm] over, cause I don't want to [G] believe
Cause now I've opened my [D]
eyes and I have found a way to [A] breathe
The truth sets me [Bm] free
Verse 2:
[Bm] I broke my back to make a [G] [D] breakthrough, mmm
[Bm] I lost my mind, look what it [G] came [D] to, oh
[Bm] I had to lose it all so I could [G] [D] understand, woah
[Bm] I was just a boy in the [G] shadow of [D] a man
Chorus:
I set fire to the [Bm] glory
I set fire to the [G] dream
I set fire to the [D] only thing
That led me from the [A] streets
Don't tell me it's [Bm] over, cause I don't want to [G] believe
Cause now I've opened my [D] eyes
and I have found a way to [A] breathe
Oh, the truth sets me [Em] free [Bm]
Oh, the truth sets me [Em] free [G]
Chorus:
I set fire to the [Bm] glory
I set fire to the [G] dream
I set fire to the [D] only thing
That led me from the [A] streets
Don't tell me it's [Bm] over
I don't want to [G] believe
Cause now I've opened my [D] eyes
and I have found a way to [A] breathe
Oh, the truth sets me [Bm] free [G]
Oh, the truth sets me [D] free [A]
Oh, the truth sets me [Bm] free [G]
Oh, the truth sets me [D] free [A]
It sets me [Bm] free
