View chords used in this chart
verse 1
Dm
They wanted me here
Bb
Just to show you my face
Dm
But when it comes to the crunch
Bb
I just hide in disgrace
Dm
You're calling me mad
Bb
But i know you're the same
Am
Cause you got to be seen to be playing the game
Gm
Yes we got to be seen to be playing, the game
[Refrão]
Dm
It ain't gonna hurt now
Gm C
If you open up your eyes
Dm
You're making it worse now
Gm C
Everytime you criticise
Dm
I'm under your curse now
Gm C
But I call it compromise
Am
I thought that you were wise
Gm
But you were otherwise
verse 2
A specimen like you
I would love to obtain
I asked a tedious guy if he'll tell me your name
I'd love to impress you
With a back somersault
I want to take out your love
But it's locked in a vault
I wanna take up your love
But it's locked in a vault
Chorus
verse 3
When i open my mouth
I'm so brutally honest
And i can't expect that kind of love from you
When you open your mouth
your teeth are beautifully polished
And i can't extract the pain you're going through
No i can't explain
The pain you're going through
Chorus
