E B

[Verse 1]
E
  We came from nothing
                         B
And worked our way up to everything

Our friends and family saw us
E
  As our heads grew tall
                B
Taller than the trees

And now you think you’re above everything

[Pre-Chorus]
E
You did just what you knew not to do
                      B
You let it go to your head
E
You did the things we said we’d never do
                               B
And now you’ve thrown it all away

For the things you’ve gained

You said

[Chorus]
E
This is not how it was supposed to be
                                B
The fame has got the best of me

This wasn’t in the dream

Some things are never as they seem
E
I’m not who you want me to be
                                B
These things are never changing
                                E  B
The fame has got the best of me

[Verse 2]
E
  And now you’re something
                         B
Something you should not have become

And everyone they saw you
E
  As your head grew tall
                 B
Taller than this city

In which you look down on everything

[Pre-Chorus]
E
You did just what you knew not to do
                      B
You let it go to your head
E
You did the things we said we’d never do
                               B
And now you’ve thrown it all away

For the things you’ve gained

You said

[Chorus]
E
This is not how it was supposed to be
                                B
The fame has got the best of me

This wasn’t in the dream

Some things are never as they seem
E
I’m not who you want me to be
                                B
These things are never changing
                                E  B
The fame has got the best of me

[Bridge]
                                E  B
The fame has got the best of me

(You let it go to your head)

You said

[Chorus]
E
This is not how it was supposed to be
                                B
The fame has got the best of me

This wasn’t in the dream

Some things are never as they seem
E
I’m not who you want me to be
                                B
These things are never changing
                                E  B
The fame has got the best of me
