curtains open up the scene, spotlights shine on you and me, tonight
C Am F C
Pretending for the crowd below, we put on a real good show, but it's a lie
F Am
We can't help but cause a fight, it's the same old drama every night
Dm G*
I walk offstage cause this whole play is more than I can take
C Am F G
Woah, I don't want it to be over, but we need a break before you break my heart
C Am F G
Oh, we can't live this scene forever, right now you and me are better, better off
apart
F G*
But I'll still love you when the lights come up for our intermission
C Am F C
I was one foot out the door, I couldn't play that part no more with you
C Am F G
The chemistry just wasn't there, I couldn't act like I didn't care, when I do, I do
F Am
We can't help but cause a fight, it's the same old drama every night
Dm G
I walk offstage cause this whole play is more than I can take
C Am F G
Woah, I don't want it to be over, but we need a break before you break my heart
C Am F G
Oh, we can't live this scene forever, right now you and me are better, better off
apart
F Am Dm
But I'll still love you when the lights come up, yeah, I'll still love you when

F Am Dm

G
You're just saying the same old lines to me, yeah
F Am G
Somewhere we fell off track, but I know love will lead us back
