Intro: G F Am Verse G Cm G You can see yourself in the side mirror Em Tossing your hair C Am If no one is there C Am Why do you care G Cm G Though I let you think there was no witness to Em All of your crimes C Am I knew what you were C Am A climber who climbs G Em I?m living a lie C Am You?re living it too C Am Cause I live it with you G Bm I?m living a lie Em Am A lie I can?t tell G F Am So we wait for a crack in the shell VERSE TWO G Cm G No one bears a grudge like a boy genius Em Just past his prime C Am Gilding his cage C Am A bar at a time G Cm G For every open arm there's a cold shoulder Em Waiting to turn C Am People to blame C Am Bridges to burn G Em I?m living a lie C Am You?re living it too C Am Cause I live it with you G Bm I?m living a lie Em Am A lie I can?t tell G F Am So we wait for a crack in the shell BRIDGE C G C A girl comes around at a time when your ground G F C Is as shaky as leaves on a tree Am G C Am Creating for you a persona or two G F C Or an out-and-out mythology Am G C Now there?s too many cooks but you like how it looks G F C When they?re bowing and calling you ?boss? Am G C Am But the powers that were, were invested in her G F C Am And now winning means taking a loss G Em I?m living a lie C Am You?re living it too C Am Cause I live it with you G Bm I?m living a lie Em Am A lie I can?t tell G F Am So we wait for a crack in the shell G F Am Yeah we wait for a crack in the shell
