    Em                               B7 
You look like you just lost your dearest friend. 
         Em                               B7           
Played a round of a sisterly game called “pretend”. 
 Em                 B7             D             B7              Em 
The dice landed on feelings not returned,I was a fool I didn’t learn. 
             D               B7 
Close to the fire felt the burn. 


Em                             B7 
This is a tale ‘bout loyalty to me. 
  Em                               B7 
A friendship’s end, of course, amicably. 
Em          B7                D                 B7              Em 
I must apologize for my cold goodbye,This is my life, the reason why, 
              D                  B7 
You’re not allowed here back inside. 

Em                                B7 
I remember when I first laid eyes on you. 
          Em                           B7 
I thought here’s one that understands my truth. 
    Em             B7             D               B7             Em 
You seemed as openly-closed as myself,I felt intrigued I felt unwell, 
           D              B7 
I had no choice I had to tell. 

   Em                            B7 
But once entrusted with my biggest fears 
     Em                                 B7 
I’ve questioned where I’ve had you through the years. 
    Em              B7            D                 B7              Em 
You kept a portion of my heart to sell, You did not treat it very well 
               D               B7 
Although I begged you not to tell. 

Em                     B7 
You’re all telling stories, 
Em                   D 
You’re all telling lies, 
Em                    B7 
How come you’re so blurry? 
Em                D 
You’re all in disguise. 

Em B7 Em D (x2) 

      Em                                B7 
There are some people you’ll know all your life. 
    Em                                  B7 
A constant group that leave you feeling safe. 
    Em                   B7                  D                 B7 
But I have learned that some are there to change you,Leave you wiser,  
Em 
rearranged  
                              B7 
but then are better left estranged. 

  Em                            B7 
I heard you met him out the other night. 
     Em                            B7 
And drunkenly expressed with all your might. 
     Em                 B7                 D               B7 
That you still miss our friendship but abstain from taking action, 
         Em                     D                   B7 
Still the same, I don’t miss fractions, can’t complain. 

Em                     B7 
You’re all telling stories, 
Em                   D 
You’re all telling lies, 
Em                    B7 
How come you’re so blurry? 
Em                D 
You’re all in disguise.
