(verse 1)
Gm Gm7M Gm7 C
Right in front of me, a couple makes what could melt the snow
Gm Gm7M Gm7 C
Making fun of me a single look never cut me so
(chorus)

And I go to save the conversation
Cm F A# Gm Cm F A# Gm
I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe
Cm C7M Gm
Everyone would love me, if I could fool the world
(transition) Gm Gm7M Gm7 C

Walk away from me, I see the change in the atmosphere

What a way to be, to turn the page just to make it clear
(chorus 2)
Cm F A# Gm
And I go to save the conversation
Cm F A# Gm Cm F A#
I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe

Everyone would love me, if I could fool the world

And I go to change the conversation

I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe

Cm Gm Cm Gm
I can't survive another day in the life, without a day in the sun
Cm Gm Cm Gm
Before you touch me here's a word of advice; if I were you I would run
(Get it, come get it, come get it, come get it)
N.C. Cm
(So won't you tell me why it is...)
Gm Cm Gm
That every corner of my head is a home, but every fool is the same
Cm Gm Cm A#
It'd be so tragic if you left me alone, but left me no one to blame
(bridge 2)

Well, don't it make you wonder what got us here?

The covers that were under could disappear
F# F Gm
Promises keep us in chains, my dear...
