              INTRO F# A#/D D#m C#m/E B Bm F# 
 
Verso I 
       F#                   A#/D                   D#m 
You say  you want the truth,    but you can't take it 
C#m/E                  B 
     So I give you lies 
Bm               F# 
  I give you lies 
       F#                  A#/D               D#m 
You say  you want the best,    but you destroy   it 
C#m/E               B 
     So I keep it inside 
Bm            F# 
  I keep it inside 
 
Pre-Refrão 
               D#m 
I tell you something 
                    C#             Bmaj7 
It's a double-edged sword you're giving 
                             F# 
And I can't see the truth in living 
                              C#sus4 
When we hide behind a wall of fear 
C#              D#m 
  And you don't see it 
               C#          Bmaj7 
It's a twisted dream you believe in 
                          F# 
And what's the use in pretending? 
                                     C#sus4 
Let's make the smoke and mirrors disappear  
 
 
C#           F# 
  So there I said it 
             C# 
And I won't apologize to you anymore 
            D#m 
Cause I'm a grown-ass man 
      C# 
And I wanna live again 
        B                 A#m            G#m  
And I'm sick and tired of living in your shadows 
           F# 
So there I said it 
             C# 
And I won't apologize to you anymore 
            D#m 
Cause I'm a grown-ass man 
      C#   
And I don't understand 
B               A#m           G#m 
Why I should be living in the shadows, so there I said it 
 
Verso II 
       F#                  A#/D              D#m 
You wa - nna hear my voice,    my mind, my demons 
C#m/E            B 
     But not too much 
Bm               F# 
  Or you'll give up 
 
Pre-Refrão 
               D#m 
I tell you something 
                    C#             Bmaj7 
It's a double-edged sword you're giving 
                             F# 
And I can't see the truth in living 
                              C#sus4 
When we hide behind a wall of fear 
C#              D#m 
  And you don't see it 
               C#          Bmaj7 
It's a twisted dream you believe in 
                          F# 
And what's the use in pretending? 
                                     C#sus4 
Let's make the smoke and mirrors disappear  
 
 
C#           F# 
  So there I said it 
             C# 
And I won't apologize to you anymore 
            D#m 
Cause I'm a grown-ass man 
      C# 
And I wanna live again 
        B                 A#m            G#m  
And I'm sick and tired of living in your shadows 
           F# 
So there I said it 
             C# 
And I won't apologize to you anymore 
            D#m 
Cause I'm a grown-ass man 
      C#   
And I don't understand 
B               A#m           G#m 
Why I should be living in the shadows, so there I said it
