Intro F#m A E B
B A E B
How can you be so certain that you're the one flirting with fire
F#m
If each choir needs preaching
A E B F#m
And everyone's reaching into their pockets to see what they got
A E B F#m
If not a lot has changed, but if everything's changing
A E B F#m
Blame to see you sin, but no one sees face-to-face or eye-to-eye
A E B
This is not how it has to end
F#m
Who wants to be one step ahead
E B
And the first to the punchline?
F#m
Just one step ahead
E B F#m
First to the punchline
A G#m F#m
When it feels like it's all closing in, mmm
A G#m F#m
All the lines we won't cross, we bend instead
A G#m F#m
Never mind all the noise going through your head, oh
E D F#m
'Cause every time we talk, we say the same things that we say
E D F#m G#m A
'Cause you never mind all the noise going through your head
( E B F#m G#m A )
( E B G#m )
F#m A E B
How can I be so certain in my first impressions are mine?
F#m A E
If each morning I wake up with circles around me that say
B A
I got mine, I give in, I give up, it's too much
E B
Come one, let's give 'em hell!
F#m
No, why not love?, you say
A E B
Be too hard and that's not enough in this house of cards
F#m
Who wants to be one step ahead
E B
And the first to the punchline?
F#m
Just one step ahead
E B F#m
The first to the punchline
A G#m F#m
When it feels like it's all closing in, mmm
A G#m F#m
All the lines we won't cross, we bend instead
A G#m F#m
Never mind all the noise going through your head, oh
E D F#m
'Cause every time we talk, we say the same things that we say
E D F#m
And every line we cross, we say the same things that we say
E D F#m
Every time we try, we play the same old games, it's all been said
E D F#m
Now, never mind all the noise going through your head
