Intro F#m
Verse 1
F#m D, D2
Your baby and wife took a walk on the beach on a Saturday
A C#m
By Monday pictures dressed in bold font
F#m D, D2
The only thing that inspired you was the everyday,
A C#m
And that’s the only thing that they didn’t want.
F#m D, D2
The green lights your way, who does it illuminate?
A C#m
How many men reside in your face?
F#m D, D2
And which one got everything you wanted?
A C#m
When all the world’s a stage, does everything seem worthless and fake?
F#m D, D2
A
'Cause I've seen you live so many lives.
F#m D, D2
Oh, adopted a guise that put you under these lights,
A C#m
what a cruel design, that I saw you more than most of my friends
F#m D, D2 A
Now tears roll down cheeks from eyes of suspended disbelief
C#m
To watch a special news bulletin
F#m D, D2
A
Saying, "I've seen you live so many lives.
C#m
Oh what's one more?
F#m D, D2
A C#m
Why won't you rise from the grave like you done before?"
Chorus
D A
'Cause they only wanted to see
C#m F#m
if your eyes shine like in the films of you
D A
'Cause they only want to believe
C#m F#m
that they knew you well themselves
D A
Oh but of course they don't look like that
C#m F#m
That took seven hours of make-up and a special lens cap
F#m
Oh...
Verse 2
Confidants' confidence dies, tongues cluck and tears dry
How are you surprised?
That nameless sadness lives for all time
'Cause drinks don't stay cold and smoke leaves ash like a soul
and clouds all the voices of safety
I thought for a moment, yeah, maybe I was alone
Just to feel an ounce of regret
But that didn't occur once to the lunch ladies
They had a cup of tea and a cigarette
They didn't waste any precious time saying kind things
'Cause the whole appeal is to rely on the face of things
Chorus
D A
'Cause they only wanted to see
C#m F#m
if your eyes shine like in the films of you
D A
'Cause they only want to believe
C#m F#m
that they knew you well themselves
D A
Oh but of course they don't look like that
C#m F#m
That took seven hours of make-up and a special lens cap
D A
On certain days it's hard to remember that
C#m [hold]
Even for you
I hope you rest well
A F#m C#m D
