Standard (EADGBE)

I change my color for you,

I shed my coat with caution,

I lack the beauty you display.

See here they are the bruises

And some were self inflicted

And some showed up along the way.

So I nod my head I’m ready for the world to see

The secret I kept here inside the man you thought I’d be

Slipped into coma calm

The coma where I calm myself down

Here comes excuses

Why I let you down

Chorus

Stand by for another break down

Sound off the alarm

Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn’t become?

Chameleon boy

Chameleon boy

So now we’ve come upon the hardest thing I’ve ever done,

It’s telling you that I’m a mess.

What sort of mess I mean this self destructing gasoline,

The kind that strips you of your best.

And while I play instead the way that most would end up dead,

You sleep alone at home and wished that I were in our bed.

With this I’m telling you my color changes back to blue,

How do I ask you this, will you help me through?

Chorus

Stand by for another break down

Sound off the alarm

Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn’t become?

Stand by for another break down

Sound off the alarm

Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn’t become?

Chameleon boy

Chameleon boy

I tried to think of all the people I looked up to

While growing up who would I be

Now the twisted part where did all my idols end up

They’ve all passed away

Passed away

Stand by

It’s the chameleon boy

Stand by

It’s the chameleon boy

Violin solo

C and G

Chameleon boy

I’m chameleon boy

Chameleon boy

I’m chameleon boy
