My new favorite off the album. Lyrics may be slightly off at some points, but the chords
are accurate.

[C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#]
[F#m] [G#] [B] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m][G#]
[C#m]First time that they [G#]came for me
I was a [C#m]young boy and little did I [G#]not believe
I had a [C#m]hole in my heart
And I was [G#]looking for a piece that [C#m]fit[G#]

[C#m]The next time I was [G#]privy to
Their [C#m]dirty secrets of their [G#]little hidden clues
And when I [C#m]added it up, I had a [G#]little, but a little won't do

[F#m]Can anybody out there [G#]tell me something true

[C#m] [F#m] [G#] [C#m] [F#m] [G#]
[F#m]Preferably something that [G#]no one can dispute

[C#m] [F#m] [G#] [C#m] [F#m] [G#]
[F#m]When everybody's spilling [G#]lifelong secrets
[B]I'm betting safely on the [G#]man it will demiss
[G#]Despite his weakness
[G#]He'll take his secrets to the grave.

[C#m] [E] [A] [E] [F#m] [C#m] [B] [A]
[C#m] [E] [A] [E] [F#m] [C#m] [B] [A]
[G#]
[E](And we will [B]leave it all!)
[C#m]Don't ever want you left be[A]hind
[E](So get your [B]fill while I go)
[C#m]Don't you ever think they'll [A]take you alive

[E](I [B]don't know [C#m]when the lies and [A]when the truth begin)
[E]Don't listen to [B]anyone, telling you [C#m]anything
It's the truth, [A]it's all relative

[G#]
[C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#]
[F#m] [G#] [B] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m][G#]

[C#m]Though no one thought it would ever [G#]come to this
I have a [C#m]secret
And that [G#]secret is there was a [C#m]lie I told myself [G#]until it became the [C#m]truth

[C#m]Rest assured I have a [G#]plan B on my [C#m]mind
If all the webs I [G#]weaved would ever come and [C#m]unwind
But I got [G#]plenty of [C#m]time

[F#m]Can anybody out there [G#]tell me something true

[C#m] [F#m] [G#] [C#m] [F#m] [G#]
[F#m]Before I believe something that [G#]no one can dispute

[C#m] [F#m] [G#] [C#m] [F#m] [G#]
[F#m]When everybody's spilling [G#]lifelong secrets
[B]I'm betting safely on the [G#]man it will demiss
[G#]Despite his weakness
[G#]He'll take his secrets to the grave.

[C#m] [E] [A] [E] [F#m] [C#m] [B] [A]
[C#m] [E] [A] [E] [F#m] [C#m] [B] [A]
[G#]
[E](And we will [B]leave it all!)
[C#m]Don't ever want you left be[A]hind
[E](So get your [B]fill while I go)
[C#m]Don't you ever think they'll [A]take you alive

[E](I [B]don't know [C#m]when the lies and [A]when the truth begin)
[E]Don't listen to [B]anyone, telling you [C#m]anything
It's the truth, [A]it's all relative

[G#]
[C#m]I still believe [E]in mys[G#]teries
[C#m]And all the lies [E]and mem[G#]ories

[C#m]I kno[E]w t[F#m]hey'l[G#]l lay my body to the ground (?)
[C#m]I[E][F#m][G#]
I'll fight tonight beside ourselves (?)

[G#]
[C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#]
[F#m] [G#] [B] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m] [G#] [C#m][G#]
[G#]
[C#m]I took the [E]medicine, but the [A]pills won't [E]work
[F#m]The pills, they don't do [C#m]anything
[B]But rearrange all the [A]littlest things and-

[C#m]I know a [E]little bit, [A]but that bit won't [E]do
[F#m]That bit I know is [C#m]irrelevant
[B]So I guess this song is [A]irrelevant too[E]
