Em G C Bm

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

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

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

Em G C Bm

Em 
So what you had didn't fit
G                     C
among the pretty things.

But never fear, never fear.
Bm                      Em
I now know where you've been.
            
Braids have been un-tied.
G               C
Ribbons fall away,

Leave the consequence.
Bm                  Em
But my tears you'll taste.

Am
Falling apart, and all that I question. 
C                                     D
Is this a dream , or is this my lesson?

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

Am
I don't believe I'll be alright
C
I don't believe I'll be OK
D                                    Em
I don't believe how you've thrown me away
Am
I do believe you didn't try
C
I do blame you for every lie
D
When I look in your eyes, I don't see mine

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

Em  C  G             D Em
Oh, my permission to sin
C                      G          D
You might have started my reckoning
Em      C             D        G
I got a reason now to bury him alive

Another little white lie...
