Am7                           Am7 
I changed my color for you, I shed my coat with caution 
G                          G 
I lack the beauty you display 
Am7                           Am7 
See here they are the bruises and some were self-inflicted 
G                            G 
And some showed up along the way 
Am7                    Am7 
So I nod my head, I'm ready for the world to see 
     G 
The secret i kept here inside the man you thought id be 
Am7                      Am7 
Slip into coma calm, the coma where I calm myself down 
G 
Here comes excuses why I let you down 


==Chorus== 
C                              G 
Stand by for another breakdown, sound off the alarm 
                C                                G 
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become? 
            Am7    G 
Chameleon boy 
            Am7    G 
Chameleon boy 


==VERSE== 
Am7                        Am7   
So now we've come upon the hardest thing I've ever done 
G                          G 
Its telling you that I'm a mess 
Am7                         Am7 
What sort of mess I mean is self-destructive gasoline 
G                                G 
The kind that strips you of your best 
Am7                           Am7         
And while i play instead the way that most would end up dead 
G                            G 
You sleep alone at home and wish that I was in our bed 
Am7                        Am7 
With this I'm telling you, my color changes back to blue 
G 
How do i ask you this... will you help me through? 


==Chorus== 
C                              G 
Stand by for another breakdown, sound off the alarm 
                C                                G 
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become? 
C                              G 
Stand by for another breakdown, sound off the alarm 
                C                                G 
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become? 
            Am7    G 
Chameleon boy 
            Am7    G 
Chameleon boy 


==VERSE/BRIDGE== 
Am7 
I try to think of all the people i look up to 
G 
Or growing up who would I be 
Am7 
Now the fuckked up part, where did all my idols end up? 
G 
They all passed away, Passed away 


==Chorus== 
C                              G 
Stand by for another breakdown, sound off the alarm 
                   C                           G 
It's the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become 
            Am7    G 
Chameleon boy 
            Am7    G 
Chameleon boy
