Capo 2
What a [C]lonely way to [Em]lie Pre[D]tend that you’re al[G]right
[C]Then take a [Em]handful of white [D]pills to make you [G]smile
You haven’t [C]been yourself at [Em]all Though I [D]know it’s not your [G]fault
[C]They left you [Em]wondering just [D]who the hell you [G]are
There’s a [Em]box in your [D]heart Where you [G]keep your feelings [C]hidden
It’s been [Em]carefully [D]locked shut [G] [C]
And the [Em]house that you [D]call home [G]Feels more like a [C]prison
Say you’re [Em]happier [D]now but [G]...I’ve [C]figured you out
[Em]I know you [D]swore to tell the [G]truth But the [C]truth is hiding
[Em]And every [D]smile that you [G]sell Baby [C]I’m not buying
[Em]The only [D]way you feel a[G]live Is when you [C]feel like dying
[Em]And you won’t [D]look me in the [G]yes Because you [C]know you’re lying
Out in the [Em]deep end [D]Always on [G]defense
[C]You’re even [Em]scared to let your [D]own eyes see you [G]cry [C]
So what could it [Em]hurt to breathe your [D]breath? Scream it [G]out until nothing’s [C]left
No [Em]matter what the [D]voices said There’s [G]better days a[C]head
There’s a [Em]box in your [D]heart Where you [G]keep your feelings [C]hidden
It’s been [Em]carefully [D]locked shut [G] [C]
And the [Em]house that you [D]call home [G]Feels more like a [C]prison
Say you’re [Em]happier [D]now but [G]...I’ve [C]figured you out
[Em]I know you [D]swore to tell the [G]truth But the [C]truth is hiding
[Em]And every [D]smile that you [G]sell Baby [C]I’m not buying
[Em]The only [D]way you feel a[G]live Is when you [C]feel like dying
[Em]And you won’t [D]look me in the [G]yes Because you [C]know you’re lying
