If you follow
C#
    the jaw-line 
        F#      G#     A
down over the heart, 

E                 D#                   C#
the curves of your bone and muscle 
                    F#     G#     A
that make up your head to toe...
E                 D#             C#
it's just skin and thread, stitches and ligaments, 
F#                       G#            A
words that we spoke only to regret.

I know they're going to laugh at us when they see us 
                    A  A4
out together "holding hands" like this. 
A                                 B             
They wouldn't understand it if we told them all the reasons, 
  C#              B                                     A
not that I think this deserves any kind of explanation.

We can make it up so we've got a smile painted on all the time, 
F#                                         G# 
no matter what it's like on the inside.

We'll keep this, keep us like a secret,
