[F#m] [D] [A] [B]
[F#] [D] [A] [A] [B]
[F#] [D] Phone slips from a blue [B] [F#] script
[D] Words were missing, [A] some [Dm]
[B] apology
[F#] I didn't want to [D] tell you this
No, it's just some [A] guy [B] she's been hanging [F#] out with
[D] I don't know, the [A] past couple weeks [B] I guess
[F#m] Well, thank [D] you and hang up the phone
Let the [A] funeral start, hear the [C#] casket [F#m] close
Let the pen split [D] black ribbon [A] to your [Bm] overcoat
[F#m] But laughter [D] poised from under doors
[A] In this house I don't [Bm] understand that sound no [F#m] more
[D] Seems artificial, [A] like a TV [G] set
[Bm] A lie, a lie, a lie, a [A] lie
Persuaded must be [G] satisfied
You offer only one reply
You [A] know not what you do
As [Bm] you tear, tear your hair from
That [A] same head you got twice removed
[G] Now lock up hair you said would prove
[A] Our love would never die [Bm] Wahahahaha
I [F#m] [D] remember everything
[A] The words we [B] spoke on freezing [F#] south street
And all those mornings [D] watching you
[Am] Get ready for [B] school
[F#] You combed your hair [D] inside that mirror
The one [A] you painted blue and [B] glued with jewelry [F#] too
Something about those [D] bright colors
Would [A] always make you feel [B] better
But [F#m] now we speak [D] with ruined tongues
And [A] the words we say [Bm] aren't meant for [F#m] anyone
Sister mumbled [D] sentence to
[A] A passing [Bm] acquaintance
But there was [F#m] once you
You said you hate [D] my suffering
[A] And you understood
[Bm] And you'd take care [F#m] of me
[D] You'd always be there
[A] Where are you [G] now?
[Bm] A lie, a lie, a lie, a lie
[A] The plans would never finalize
[G] But left to hang like yarn and twine
[A] Dangling before my eyes
As [Bm] you tear, I'll tear your hair from roots
[A] With that same head you got twice removed
Now [G] a lock of hair you said would prove
[A] Our love would never die
And [Bm] I sing and sing of awful things
[A] The pleasure that my sadness brings
As [G] my fingers press onto the strings
[A] Yet another clumsy chord
[Bm] A lie, an awful lie
[A] This weight would now be satisfied
I'm [G] gonna give you only one reply
[A] I know not who I am
But I [F#m] talk in the [G] mirror
To that [A] stranger that [D] appears
Our conversations [Bm] are circles
[G] Always wrong sided
[A] Nothing is clear
Except [F#m] we keep [G] coming back
[A] To this meeting [D] that I lack
You said the [F#m] choices were given
Now [G] you must live them
[A] Or just sneer
Do you [B] want that?
[F#] [D] [A] [A] [B]
[F#] [D] Phone slips from a blue [B] [F#] script
[D] Words were missing, [A] some [Dm]
[B] apology
