G C G C
[[VERSE 1]]
G
Well, it took a little time
C
But I guess you finally learned
G D/F# e
That promises get broken
a D
And bridges do get burned
G
You've been siftin' through the ashes
B C
Just tryin' to find a flame
C G
Holdin' on to nothin'
D G
You're a victim of the game
[[VERSE 2]]
G
You were standin' way too close
C
To see it all fall apart
G D/F# e
And there were things you couldn't hear
a D
'Cause you were listenin' with your heart
G
But you can't say I didn't warn you
B C
Now there's no one else to blame
C G
There's on one quite as blind
D G
As a victim of the game
[[CHORUS]]
C F C
And it don't matter who you are
G F B
It treats everyone the same
a a/G D
All you need's a heart
C D G
To be a victim of the game
[[INTERLUDE]]
G C G D
[[VERSE 3]]
G
You know it's really gettin' to you
C
When you take to tellin' lies
G D/F# e
And you can try to fool your friends
a D
But you can't look 'em in the eye
G
There ain't no standin' tall
B C
In the shadow of the shame
G
When everybody knows
D G
That you're a victim of the game
[[CHORUS]]
C F C
And it don't matter who you are
G F B
It treats everyone the same
a a/G D
All you need's a heart
C D G
To be a victim of the game
G
Oh, you know, when I look into your eyes
B Eb C
I can really feel the pain
C G
Starin' in the mirror
D
At a victim of�..
G
The game
