A#5                               F#5
There's a girl that you might know
She's a friend at least I tell you so
A#5                                        D#5
But it might surprise you to find
A#5                                        D#5                         A#5         F#5  F5
There's something going on behind the door

When I'm asleep it gives me time to think
Thoughts that I wouldn't dare speak aloud
I couldn't bare myself before a crowd

D5                                                   A#5
I bide my time while biting my tongue
Hold closed my mouth so song is unsung
Get to the meat of things already
C#5
With buried secrets the ground is heavy


That's just the way things used to be 
That's just the way things used to be

There's a girl who's close to me
Closer than you'd like to think
Dig up all the dirt you see
There's always more just underneath

I bide my time while biting my tongue
Hold closed my mouth so song is unsung
Get to the meat of things already
With buried secrets the ground is heavy

That's just the way things used to be
