The picking pattern is pretty much like this:  (each one repeats
approximately twice, except at the end of the chorus)

                                 Aadd2
So you walked with me for a while
                     E
bared your naked soul.
                            Aadd2
And you told me of your plan,
                                   E
How you would never let them know.
In the morning of the night,
You cried a long lost child
And I tried, oh I tried to hold you
But you were young and you were wild

Chorus:

    B                         Aadd2
But I, I will never be the same
   B                         Aadd2
Oh I, I will never be the same
               E                      Aadd2
Caught in your eyes, lost in your name
                        E E E
I will never be the same


Secrets of your life,
I never wanted for myself
But you guarded them like a lie
placed up on the highest shelf.
In the morning of the night
when I woke to find you gone
I knew your distant devil
must be dragging you along...

(chorus)

And you swore that you were bound for glory
and for wanting you had no shame
But I loved you
And I lost you
And I will never be the same

(chorus)

Caught in your eyes
Lost in your name
I will never be the same..
