Escape Artist

[Verso 1]
 
A 
And now it's 2 a.m. 
E 
And I'm here with you 
F#m 
In Centennial Park 
D 
I wish it wasn't true 
A 
I know it won't make sense 
E 
What I'm about to do 
F#m 
I can't help myself 
D                        A 
You're always gonna lose me 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
       E 
In the end 
      F#m                          D                      N.C. 
Don't pretend that you never knew, never knew, never knew 
 


[Refrão]
 
A 
 I'm an escape artist 
E                           F#m 
 I'll disappear before your eyes 

And leave no trace of it 
D                          A 
 I'm not a stranger to goodbyes 
                        E                              F#m          D 
It's a curse, I'm the worst, it's probably best you realiz   -    ize 
 


[Verso 2]
 
A 
 Before you call your friend 
E 
 To com and pick you up 
F#m 
 Can we just pretend 
D                         A 
 That I knew how to love you? 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
       E 
In the end 
       F#m                       D 
And it ends like you never knew, never knew, never knew

 You might not want to waste your time 

And if I'm being honest 
D                           A 
 You might not even want to try 
                           E                             F#m         D 
'Cause it hurts, I'm the worst, it's probably best you realize  -   ize 
                      A       E   F#m   D 
I don't wanna say goodbye

       A 
And in case you haven't noticed 
        E 
I'll be gone before you know it 
        F#m                                D 
I'll be gone before you even have the chance to ask me why
