Balancing Game accords

               G#m               E
You can't have glory without the pain
                F#                 G#m
You can't have freedom without the chains
        G#m                 E
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
     F#                 G#m
This life is a balancing game

   G#m                            E
I thought I could tip the scales, cheat the game

Have the sun without the rain
 F#
Take your love and not exchange
   G#m
My heart for yours, I guess that it's me to blame

 G#m
So this is what I've found
          E
From the bridges I've burned down
        F#
That it all comes back around
    G#m
Now I know

               G#m               E
You can't have glory without the pain
                F#                 G#m
You can't have freedom without the chains
        G#m                 E
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
     F#                 G#m
This life is a balancing game

 G#m
So then I called you up to make amends
  E
Said "take me back" and you said "yes"
  F#
Now I know just how it ends
   G#m
You played the game like me, it was all pretend

  G#m
So this is what I've learned
          E
You can't take and not return
         F#
Because one day you'll get burned
     G#m
And now I know

               G#m               E
You can't have glory without the pain
                F#                 G#m
You can't have freedom without the chains
        G#m                 E
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
     F#                 G#m
This life is a balancing game
