[Intro]
Am    G      F       G
Am    G      F       G
 
[Verse 1]
Am         G                 F
I see myself through their eyes
G
And I cease to exist
Am                 G
Fills me with rage
F                   G
Feeling like this
Am              G           F          G
A world of strangers, stranger than most
Am                 G       F             Am
Isolation becomes the chosen lie
 
[Chorus]
 
          F        G
Lost Souls
                    Am
The hall is empty
                  F         G                Am
Someone left the window open and out they went
         F         G
Lost souls
                          Am
The past behind me
                  F        G               Am
Reaching out it’s hard to hold lost souls
 
[Verse 2]
Am                  G
Dangerously safe
F             G
In high strung cocoons
Am               G       F          G
Equality of dead becomes status bound
Am                   G     F     G
Armor plated hearts refuse to feel
Am             G              F           Am
Watch a would-be brother dying in the streets
 
[Chorus]
          F        G
Lost Souls
                    Am
The hall is empty
                                 G             Am
Someone left the window open and out they went
         F         G
Lost souls
                          Am
The past behind me
                  F              G            Am
Reaching out it’s hard to hold lost souls
 
[Bridge]
 
       F                            G
If another nameless man should fall
        Am
The news will show his plight
F                     G                 Am
15 minutes, 15 minutes of fame - fade away
F                                    G
If another nameless man should fall
Am
Back into the night
F                      G         Am
Back into the night of lost souls
 
[Chorus]
          F        G
Lost Souls
                    Am
The hall is empty
                  F           G              Am
Someone left the window open and out they went
         F         G
Lost souls
                          Am
The past behind me
                  F           G             Am
Reaching out it’s hard to hold lost souls
 
[Outro]
F                             G
Reaching out it’s hard
F                             G
Reaching out it’s hard to hold lost souls
 
Am    G    F    Am
