[Am7]Sympathy,[G]
[F]this is my best d[C]isguise.
My [Am7]skin stepped out for my b[G]ones to dry up,
for the r[F]est of the world out[C]side...to[Am7] see.[G]
You see[F] I bleed on the s[C]ide
It's a p[Am7]art time thing, a pr[G]ivate affair
I t[F]ry to keep it out of the l[C]ight.
I must co[Am7]nfess, I didn't rec[C]ognize you to[F]night
[Am7]Dressed up like my [C]love.[F]
And I h[Am7]ate these things but I alw[G]ays attend,
a l[F]ittle sip of something to t[C]ake off the edge.
And I [Am7]make my way through the [G]ghosts in the room,
tr[F]ying to crack a [C]smile.
And [Am7]who you supposed to [G]be?
[F]You look like heaven t[C]onight
And[Am7] me I'm a tomb, a co[G]rpse in a suit,
t[F]rying to look a little al[C]ive.
Are you a[Am7]lright?
I w[C]orry sometim[F]es,
are you dr[Am7]essed up to take my [C]life?[F]
Keep it c[Am7]oming, [C]
keep it c[F]oming,
Keep it c[Am7]oming,[C]
Keep it comi[F]ng.
And I [C]think I saw you for the flash of a moment,
Your b[F]roken heart and the body that holds it
I [C]lost your scent in the flash of the party.
The [F]big bright lights, baby, constantly haunt me.
I've n[C]ever been right, have you ever been lied to?
I t[F]hink I just saw the same scars upon you.
But i[C]s this a disguise? A ma[F]squerade for me?
Keep it c[Am7]oming, [F]
Keep it co[C]ming,[G]
Keep it com[Am7]ing,[F]
Keep it co[C]ming,[G]
And [Am7]who you supposed to [F]be?
Hey you l[C]ook just like my l[G]ove.
And [Am7]who you supposed to [F]be?
Are you d[C]ressed just like my [G]love?
And w[Am7]ho you supposed to[F] be?
Hey you lo[C]ok just like my [G]love.
And [Am7]who you supposed to [F]be?
Are you dr[C]essed just like my l[G]ove for Ha[C]lloween?
