INTRO: C  F  C  G  C
 
           Em      C        F
You see me now, as large as life
                    G            C
But underneath, you knew all too well
           Em        C        F
The hollow shell, no spark of life
                  G                  C
Where once upon a time, there beat a heart
    Em          Am                Em
For you and you knew it, from the start
    C            Am       Bb          C
And you went and blew it, all away
 
 
             Em                F
And you knew how, oh, you knew best
                        G          C
The strings to pull and buttons to press
           Em     C       F
To wind me up, or make me shake
                G            C
You controlling every move I make
    Em              Am                  Em
How could I've seen through it, all the pain
    C          Am         C
And you put me through it
Bb              G
Over and over again
              Bb                 G     C
Just tell me, over and over and over
 
 
CHORUS:
              Am               Bb      G C
How could you say there was no other?
           Am                Bb      G C
Why is it, nothing's what it seems?
            Am                Bb     G C
You told me I'm your greatest lover
            Am                  Bb     G C
Do you even know what that word means?
               C7
Your loving is cooling
      Am                  F
Baby, who ya think you're fooling?
       Dm          F                                 C
'Cause when I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
     Dm     F                                 C       Em
When I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
 
 
BRIDGE:
Am
Stop it! Stop it! Don't you say a word
  C                                G               Em7
I put my hands around her neck and everything went blurred
Am
Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hand
    Am                                   G                  C
She lay so still and lifeless, I cried, "Baby, baby, baby"
 
 
CHORUS:
              Am               Bb      G C
How could you say there was no other?
           Am                Bb      G C
Why is it, nothing's what it seems?
            Am                Bb     G C
You told me I'm your greatest lover
            Am                  Bb     G C
Do you even know what that word means?
               C7
Your loving is cooling
      Am                  F
Baby, who ya think you're fooling?
            Dm     F                                 C
'Cause when I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
           Am        F                G
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
C          Am        F                G
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
       Dm      F            Dm     F
It was my dumb luck, I just came unstuck
   Dm          F          Dm         F
My whole world shook, I'd had about enough
     Dm     F                                 C
When I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
