[Intro]
Am E Am E
[Verse 1]
Am
Hey friend
E
I guess we'll just get started off the deep end
Am
Dive in, no broken hearts, no silly pretense
E
It's just a one way mirror when you pretend, pretend
Am
It’s no fair
E
That life is so much better when you don’t care
Am
Cause every single feeling is a nightmare
E
If you have a heart you better prepare, prepare
[Pre-chorus]
Am
Like a bat out of its cave
F E
Like a bare face in a masquerade
F G
Tell me you won’t leave when you find out
Am G7
It’s not what it seems when the curtain comes down
[Chorus]
Am
If I told you, ooooh
F E
And if I showed you, oooooooh
Am
The fairest of white with a venomous bite
F E
Look through the mirror and it’s shaded in rose
Am
An hourglass heart with a devil’s smoke strike
F E
There are thorns in my hands, ignore the point in my toes
F G
Icarus flew too close to the sun
Am
And now his wings are gone, he’s a sad and sorry song like me
F G
I wanna be an aphrodite
Am
It’s catastrophic really, oh, it’s such a pity
F E
That life is not mythology
[Interlude]
Am Dm G7
A Dm G7
[Verse 2]
Am E
I ride a carousel of pity from my worst days
Am
When I’d romanticize the feeling of a sick brain
E
But how can you get better if you don’t change, don’t change
Am
It’s stained
E
In words upon my heart that I am not tame
Am
So look at me like art and I will be sane
E
But don’t you read my like a book or else the words will run right off the page
[Pre-chorus]
Am
Like a bat out of its cave
F E
Like a bare face in a masquerade
F G
Tell me you won’t leave when you find out
Am G7
It’s not what it seems when the curtain comes down
[Chorus]
Am
If I told you, ooooh
F E
And if I showed you, oooooooh
Am
The fairest of white with a venomous bite
F E
Look through the mirror and it’s shaded in rose
Am
An hourglass heart with a devil’s smoke strike
F E
There are thorns in my hands, ignore the point in my toes
F G
Icarus flew too close to the sun
Am
And now his wings are gone, he’s a sad and sorry song like me
F G
I wanna be an aphrodite
Am
It’s catastrophic really, oh, it’s such a pity
F E
That life is not mythology
[Guitar solo]
Am F G
Am F E
[Bridge]
Am
I may be older
Em
But the story isn’t over
Am
Until I break the chains
Em
Until I make some waves, woah
Am
Too bad, it’s time to fly or flight
E
Cause I’m stuck inside a trance, like a moth drawn to a light
Am
A halo hanging low, losing glow, feathers falling
E
I’m crawling so slowly as I sing
Am
Would you judge me
F E
If I….
[Chorus]
Am
If I told you, ooooh
F E
And if I showed you, oooooooh
Am
The fairest of white with a venomous bite
F E
Look through the mirror and it’s shaded in rose
Am
An hourglass heart with a devil’s smoke strike
F E
There are thorns in my hands, ignore the point in my toes
F G
Icarus flew too close to the sun
Am
And now his wings are gone, he’s a sad and sorry song like me
F G
I wanna be an aphrodite
Am
It’s catastrophic really, oh, it’s such a pity
F E
That life is not
C G
That life is not
F E
That life is not… Mythology
Am (end)
