[Verse]
G
It’s not what I thought it would feel like
The praise that’s seeping in
C
It goes out as quick as it comes
G
Like it’s carried by some strong wind
Am D
And I know what it seems like
G
That I’m thinking on leaving again
[Verse]
G
Well maybe I’m just a little shallow
And if it’s true that still waters run deep
C
Well then I’ve been swiftly moving
G
Can the others see right through me?
Am D
My masquerades and my illusions
G
That I crafted so carefully
Am D
Well, I’m just a broken illusion
G
I’m not as tough as I oughta be

[Verse]
G
Well, the flowers my mama bought me
They only keep for two weeks
C
And then they just become another reminder
G
That he’s never gonna write to me
Am D
And I spoke my fears to my mama
G
She said “Honey, just let it be.”
Am
And then she sent some pretty flowers
D G
With the hopes that my hurtin’ they would ease.

[Verse]
G G7
Well, you would think that I should feel happy
G
But the truth is I feel spent
C
And the numbers they’ve been climbing
G
Just not enough to pay my rent
Am
I didn’t used to think much of the numbers
D C Bm Am G
But now they’re always racing through my head
Am
And I guess that I grew a little shallow
D G
When I forsook the words that my mama once said

[Verse]
G
And now my thoughts are slow and twisted
And I can’t seem to break them down
C
Which leaves my words false in meaning
G
I feel sad when I speak out loud
Am
I thought I was to be a better lover
D G
When I got out of that town
Am
But I’m still no good in lovin’
D G
And lovin’ only leaves me losin’ anyhow
