Em
I drift away to a place.
C
Another kind of life.
Em
To take away the pain 
  D               Em
I create my paradise. 
                C                  Em
Everything I've held, has hit the wall. 
                 C                     D
What used to be yours, isn't yours at all. 

Am
Falling apart, and all that I'm asking. 
D
Is it a crime, am I overreacting?

        Em       G        D
Chorus::Oh, he's under my skin
Em                            G      D
Just give me something to get rid of him
Em                D         G
I got a reason to bury this alive
                     D
Another little white lie


Em 
What you had didn't fit
C
among the pretty things.
Em
But never fear, never fear.
C                       D
I now know where you've been.
Em
Braids have been un-tied.
C
Ribbons fall away,
Em
Leave the consequence.
C                     D
But my tears you'll taste.

Am
Falling apart and all that I'm asking
D
Is this a dream, or is this my lesson?

Chorus

Am
I don't believe I'll be alright
C
I don't believe I'll be ok
D                                      Am
I don't believe how you could throw me away
Em
I do believe you didn't try
C
I do blame you for every lie
D                                       Am
When I look into your eyes, I don't see mine...

Chorus


Oh, my permission to sin
You might have started my reckoning
I got a reason now to bury him alive
Another little white lie...
