Verse 1:

D F#m Even gold turns black under the soles Em Broken CDs in the potholes, G D Out of reach just like the things you can't control F#m Eyes caught in brighter lights Em Oh dear, the fear will never fade G It hides between the fine lines of your face
F#m G And maybe this will fade with fame F#m G Or shadow you like a given name A G Sometimes truth's disguised in a tangled shame A You hide away inside your room G A Close your eyes so change and pain just feel the same
Solo D F#m D F#m

Verse 2:

D F#m You've got it figured out Em But people aren't logical G D They'll drink the glass regardless of how full F#m They live oblivious Em To days that burn like cigarettes G And fall in piles of things you soon forget
F#m G And maybe this will fade with fame F#m G Or shadow you like a given name A G Sometimes truth's disguised in a tangled shame A You hide away inside your room G A Close your eyes so change and pain just feel the same
( D F#m D F#m A )

Bridge:

G A Your life's a power play D Your curtain's contradictory F#m You shred the script and fake your victory G A It's hidden in peripheral D And so it glints like Chekhov's gun G A The shot goes off, and yet the show goes on
( D F#m D G A )
F#m G And maybe this will fade with fame F#m G Or shadow you like a given name A G Sometimes truth's disguised in a tangled shame A You hide away inside your room G A Close your eyes so nothing's changing G A Not a moment's left worth taking G A Everything's mundane, nothing else remains G A Cause change and pain will always feel the same
Final D F#m D F#m D F#m D G A D
