C#m           A                E
You reside in grand disguises
                    G#
Just to get, get away from it all
C#m          A                  E
Falsify the life you're hiding
                    G#
Just to get, get away from it all


[Pre-Chorus]
        F#m         G#        A           B
But the truth we pursue as we all beg you to


[Chorus 1]
         C#m              A               F#m       G#
Kill the lights, kill the actor, kill the actress
     C#m            A                   B       G#
I'm afraid that the spotlight dried you up, whoa, whoa oh

C#m A C#m G#


[Verse 2]
C#m                  A                  E
Shut your mouth, you make me sick with
                          G#
All the lies, all the lies that you spill
C#m                 A                    E
Slip and fall, I'll watch you drown in
                          G#
All the lies, all the lies that you spill
          C#m         A
As you're tongue-tied, did you believe it?
E           G#
False pride never existed
C#m   A                     E
Now I am cutting ties clean off
               G#                F#m
And I can breathe at last, so we all


[Pre-Chorus]
           G#            A             B
Stand enthralled by this bland curtain call
F#m                 G#         A                  B
And the truth we pursue as we all, we all beg you to


[Chorus 2]
         C#m              A               F#m       G#
Kill the lights, kill the actor, kill the actress
     C#m            A                   B       G#
I'm afraid that the spotlight dried you up, whoa, whoa oh
C#m
Don't even think about it
A                          F#m
Don't even think about it, no
                G#
We're begging you
            C#m              A               B        G#
To kill the lights, kill the actor, kill the actress

Or kill us all


[Bridge]
C#m
Stop there and peer inside of me
A
You'll find a man once lost at sea
F#m
But all the while I would think to myself
     G#                                   C#m
It's not the end, it's not the end at all
                              A
So sick of nothing going right
                            F#m
Sail on along into the night

Not even death could stand in the way
    G#                                 N.C.
You never even tried in the first place


[Chorus]
         C#m              A               F#m       G#
Kill the lights, kill the actor, kill the actress
     C#m            A                   B       G#
I'm afraid that the spotlight dried you up, whoa, whoa oh
C#m
Don't even think about it
A                          F#m
Don't even think about it, no
                G#
We're begging you
            C#m              A               B        G#
To kill the lights, kill the actor, kill the actress
           C#m
Or kill us all
C#m
Or kill us all
C#m
Or kill us all
