(verse 1)
G5 G5 G5 C5
Right in front of me, a couple makes what could melt the snow
G5 G5 G5 C5
Making fun of me a single look never cut me so
(chorus)
C5 F5 A#5 G5
And I go to save the conversation
C5 F5 A#5 G5 C5 F5 A#5 G5
I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe
C5 C5 G5
Everyone would love me, if I could fool the world
(transition) G5 G5 G5 C5
(verse 2)
G5 G5 G5 C5
Walk away from me, I see the change in the atmosphere
G5 G5 G5 C5
What a way to be, to turn the page just to make it clear
(chorus 2)
C5 F5 A#5 G5
And I go to save the conversation
C5 F5 A#5 G5 C5 F5 A#5
I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe
C5 C5 G5
Everyone would love me, if I could fool the world
(interlude)
C5 A#5 F5 G5
To fear, or to disappear
C5 D5
What a waste of time...
(verse 3)
G5 G5 G5 C5
What a troubled mind a fortune find for another day
G5 G5 G5 C5
As you're passing by, you look behind to see what I would say
(chorus 3)
C5 F5 A#5 G5
And I go to change the conversation
C5 F5 A#5 G5 C5 F5 A#5 G5
I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe
C5 C5
Everyone would love me, if I could
C5 F5 A#5 G5
So I go to change the conversation
C5 F5 A#5 G5 C5 G5 F5 C5
I know a deeper contemplation is all I need to make believe
C5 C5
Everyone would love me... if I could fool... the world
(transition)
G5 G5 G5 A#5 (x5)
"Ladies and gentlemen, Backhouse Mike!"
(bridge)
C5 G5 C5 G5
I can't survive another day in the life, without a day in the sun
C5 G5 C5 G5
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. C5
(So won't you tell me why it is...)
G5 C5 G5
That every corner of my head is a home, but every fool is the same
C5 G5 C5 A#5
It'd be so tragic if you left me alone, but left me no one to blame
(bridge 2)
F#5 F5 A#5
Well, don't it make you wonder what got us here?
F#5 F5 A#5
The covers that were under could disappear
F#5 F5 G5
Promises keep us in chains, my dear...
(outro) G5 G5 G5 A#5 (7x)
