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
