Intro: A  Amaj7 A7 - E A (2x) 

          A  
Was it a huntsman or a player  
     Amaj7  
That made you pay the cost  
          A7  
That now assumes relaxed positions  
    E                 A  
And prostitutes your loss?  
          A  
Were you tortured by your own thirst  
         Amaj7  
In those pleasures that you seek  
      F#m 
That made you Tom the curious  
     E                     A  
That makes you James the weak?  

         E                      A  
And you claim you got something going  
 E                      A  
Something you call unique  
 D                             A  
But I've seen your self-pity showing  
 E                               A  
And the tears rolled down your cheeks.

      A  
Soon you know I'll leave you  
       Amaj7  
And I'll never look behind  
          F#m 
'Cos I was born for the purpose  
     E               A  
That crucifies your mind.  

        A  
So con, convince your mirror.  
         Amaj7  
As you've always done before  
        F#m 
Giving substance to shadows  
       E              A  
Giving substance ever more.  

        E                           A  
And you assume you got something to offer  
 E                 A  
Secrets shiny and new  
D                       A  
But how much of you is repetition  
E               A  
That you didn't whisper to him too.
