Intro - Bm Bm, Em Em, A A, D D x2

Bm Bm Em Em
This is no great illusion
A A D D
When I'm with you I'm looking for a ghost
Bm Bm Em Em
Or invisible reasons
A A D D
To fall out of love and run screaming from our home

D D
Because we live in a house of mirrors
G G
We see our fears and everything
Em Em A A
Our songs, faces, and second hand clothes

D D
But more and more we're suffering
G G
Not nobody, not a thousand beers
Em Em A A
Will keep us from feeling so all alone

Em Em A A
But you are what you love
D D G G
And not what loves you back
Em Em
That's why I'm here on your doorstep
A A D D G G D D
Pleading for you to take me back

Bm Bm Em Em
The phone is a fine invention
A A D D
It allows me to talk endlessly to you
Bm Bm Em Em
About nothing disguising my intentions
A A D D
Which I'm afraid, my friend, are wildly untrue

D D
It's a sleight of hand, a white soul band
G G
The heart attacks I'm convinced I have
Em Em A A
Every morning upon waking
D D
To you I'm a symbol or a monument
G G
Your rite of passage to fufillment
Em Em A A
But I'm not yours for the taking

Em Em A A
But you are what you love
D D G G
And not what loves you back
Em Em A A D D G G D D
So i guess that's why you keep calling me back


Em Em, A A, D D, G G, D D


D D
I'm fraudulent, a thief at best
G G
A A coward who paints a bullshit canvas
Em Em A A
Things that will never happen to me
D D
But at arms length, it's Tim who said
G G
I'm good at it, I've mastered it
Em Em A A
Avoiding, avoiding everything

Em Em A A
But you are what you love tim
D D G G
And not what loves you back

Em Em
And I'm in love with illusions
A A
So saw me in half
Em Em
I'm in love with tricks
A A D D G G D D
So pull another rabbit out of your hat
