Verse:
On a s[D]tring I was held[D+] the way I move, [GM7]can you tell?[F#7]
My act[E-]ions are orchestr[A]ated from above[D][D7]
So I s[D]wing and I sway[D+] wave my hands k[GM7]ick my legs[F#7]
And it'[E-]s always righ[A]t with the music[D][D7]
(Until[G-] all that swinging starts to make you sick)
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bright_eyes/false_advertising_crd_ver_3.html )
For a[D] song I was bo[D+]ught, now I lie [GM7]when I talk[F#7]
With a[E-] careful eye on t[A]he cue card[D][D7]
Onto [D]a stage, I was[D+] pushed with my[GM7] sorrow well rehear[F#7]sed
So give[E-] me all your pit[A]y and your money n[D]ow, all of it[D7]
(We us[G-]ed to think that sound was something pure)
Bridge:
I[E-]f I could act[A] like this [F#]was my real [B-]life and not[G] some cage w[A]here I've bee[B-]n placed
T[E-]hen, I could [A]tell you the [F#]truth like [B-]I used to a[G]nd not be af[A]raid of sound[B-]ing fake
[G]Now all that anyone's listening for are the mis[A]takes[D]

...The rest of the song just repeats the chord pattern in the verse until the end.
End the song with a G-
