[Intro] Am C F Dm [Verse 1] Am No smoke without fire C No silence if there's no sound F One way or another Dm You're going to put me out Am Drinks flowing like water C Too drunk to turn off the light F Stay under the covers Dm Who knows how we'll end the night Am Just don't hang your hopes on me C I want to feel something F Dm God you look so pretty when you tell me D that you love me [Chorus] F Dm Am I wish that I could lie G F But my mind gets in the way Dm Am I know you think that I'm G F Always way too self aware Dm Oh we could never Am Be together G F But it's nice to play pretend Dm Am I wish that I could lie G But I'm way too self aware [Verse 2] Am Mood swings like the weather C Body's under pressure F Oh I love the way you're using your imagination Laws of attraction Dm Put em into practice Am Just don't hang your hopes on me C I want to feel something F Dm God you look so pretty when you tell me D that you love me [Chorus] F Dm Am I wish that I could lie G F But my mind gets in the way Dm Am I know you think that I'm G F Always way too self aware Dm Oh we could never Am Be together G F But it's nice to play pretend Dm Am I wish that I could lie G But I'm way too self aware [Interlude] F Dm Am G F Dm Am G [Bridge] F Dm Just don't hang your hopes on me Am G I want to feel something F Dm Am God you look so pretty when you tell me G Dm that you love me [Chorus] F Dm Am I wish that I could lie G F But my mind gets in the way Dm Am I know you think that I'm G F Always way too self aware Dm Oh we could never Am Be together G F But it's nice to play pretend Dm Am I wish that I could lie G But I'm way too self aware
