Intro:  Dsus2/B - Dsus2/F# - G - A


Verse 1: 

Am                 G                  D
  The air that you breathe it must be poison
Bm7                        A            G
  And you're dressed up in your best disguise


Bridge 1: 
 
  Dsus2/F#                 G
I don't want to hear what you have to say
     Dsus2/F#                 G
It's there in your eyes when you look away
      Dsus2/F#              G     E/Ab  A
These beautiful words are turning into lies


Chorus 1: 

Em          G           D
How can you say that to me


Verse 2:
 
Am                     G                   D
  The light that still shines is just an illusion
Bm7             A                 G
  Just a memory from a burned out star


Bridge 2:

    Dsus2/F#              G
Its promise has come from so far away
     Dsus2/F#                      G
It's fighting through sadness and years of decay
Dsus2/F#                 G    E/Ab        A
Oh and it's a wonder it ever made it this far


Chorus 2:

         Em          Dsus2/F#    G       A
Well now how can you say that to me
      Em           Dsus2/F#    G        A
After all of those secrets you let me believe
           Am         G                 Gm            Dsus2/F#
There's no rose petal air, there's just thorns when I breathe
         Em          G
Well now how can you say that


Bridge 3:

Bm7              F#m7                          G
  It's not this silence that screams in my mind
           A                       Bm7
Each day I feel like I'm falling behind
          F#m7                      G            
Living in shadows, still getting burned
            Gm 
When will I ever learn


Chorus 3:

         Em          Dsus2/F#    G       A
Well now how can you say that to me
      Em           Dsus2/F#    G        A
After all of those secrets you let me believe
           Am         G                 Gm            Dsus2/F#
There's no rose petal air, there's just thorns when I breathe
         Em          G           D
Well now how can you say that to me


Outro:  Dsus2/B - Dsus2/F# - G - A  (repeat & fade)
