 while doing the bass
 I'm sitting  in a room
 Made up of only big  white walls and in the halls
 There's people  looking through
 The window though they know  exactly what we're here for
Don't  look up Just let them think
 There's no  place else You'd rather  be
 You're always  on display
 For everyone to watch and learn  from
 Don't you know  by now You can't turn back
 Because this road  is all you'll ever have
 And it's obvious that you're dying, dy-ing
 Just living proof that the camera's ly-ing
 And open wide,  'cause this is your night
 So smile,  'cause you'll  go out in style
 (Repeat Intro)
 You'll go out in style
 If you let  me I could
 I'd show you how to build  your fences
 Set restrictions, separate  from the world
 Because the ground that you hate  to fight
 Just blame the limelight Don't  look up
 Just let them think There's no  place else
 You'd rather be and now  you can't turn back
 Because this road  is all you'll ever have
 (Repeat Chorus except last line)
 So  smile,
 Yeah, yeah you're asking for it
 With every breath that you breathe  in
 Just breathe  it in
 Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess
 You do all this, big talk, yeah..
 So now let's see you walk it.
 I said let's see you walk it.

while doing the bass
I'm [Bm]sitting in a room
Made up of only [F#m]big white walls and in the halls
There's [Bm]people looking through
The window though they [F#m]know exactly what we're here for
[Em]Don't look up Just let them think
There's [A]no place else You'd [F#m]rather be
You're [Bm]always on display
For everyone to watch and [F#m]learn from
Don't you [Em]know by now You can't turn [D]back[A]
Because [Em]this [D/F#]road is [G]all [A]you'll [D]ever [F#]have

[Bm]  And it's obvious that you're [G]dying, [Em]dy-[F#]ing
[Bm]  Just living proof that the [G]camera's [Em]ly-[F#]ing
And [G]open [Em]wide, 'cause this is your [G]night
So [A]smile, 'cause [F#]you'll go out in style

(Repeat Intro)
You'll go out in style

If you [Bm]let me I could
I'd show you how to [F#m]build your fences
Set restrictions, [Bm]separate from the world
Because the ground that you [F#m]hate to fight
Just blame the limelight [Em]Don't look up
Just let them think There's [A]no place else
You'd rather be and [Em]now you can't turn [D]back[A]
Because [Em]this [D/F#]road is [G]all [A]you'll [D]ever [F#]have

(Repeat Chorus except last line)
So[F#] smile,

[Em]  Yeah, yeah you're asking for [G]it
With every breath that you [D]breathe in
Just [A]breathe it in
[Em]  Yeah, yeah well you're just a [G]mess
You do all this, big talk, [D]yeah..
So now let's see you walk [A]it.
