Am7      G 
Sympathy,  
F                C 
this is my best disguise. 
   Am7                      G 
My skin stepped out for my bones to dry up, 
         F                   C        Am7   G 
for the rest of the world outside...to see. 
       F                C 
You see I bleed on the side 
        Am7                 G 
It's a part time thing, a private affair 
   F                         C 
I try to keep it out of the light. 
         Am7                C            F 
I must confess, I didn't recognize you tonight 
Am7                C     F 
Dressed up like my love. 

       Am7                       G 
And I hate these things but I always attend, 
   F                          C 
a little sip of something to take off the edge. 
      Am7                     G  
And I make my way through the ghosts in the room, 
  F               C 
trying to crack a smile. 

    Am7                 G 
And who you supposed to be? 
F                     C 
You look like heaven tonight 
   Am7                 G 
And me I'm a tomb, a corpse in a suit, 
 F                        C 
trying to look a little alive. 

         Am7 
Are you alright? 

   C           F 
I worry sometimes, 
          Am7                 C     F 
are you dressed up to take my life? 
         Am7    C 
Keep it coming,  
         F      
keep it coming, 
         Am7   C 
Keep it coming, 
            F 
Keep it coming. 

      C 
And I think I saw you for the flash of a moment, 
      F 
Your broken heart and the body that holds it 
  C 
I lost your scent in the flash of the party. 
    F 
The big bright lights, baby, constantly haunt me. 
      C 
I've never been right, have you ever been lied to? 
   F 
I think I just saw the same scars upon you. 
     C                      F 
But is this a disguise? A masquerade for me? 
         Am7    F    
Keep it coming,  
          C     G 
Keep it coming, 
           Am7   F 
Keep it coming, 
          C     G 
Keep it coming, 

    Am7                 F 
And who you supposed to be? 
         C                 G 
Hey you look just like my love. 
    Am7                 F 
And who you supposed to be? 
         C                   G 
Are you dressed just like my love? 
     Am7               F 
And who you supposed to be? 
          C               G 
Hey you look just like my love. 
    Am7                 F 
And who you supposed to be? 
          C                   G         C 
Are you dressed just like my love for Halloween?
