Intro
 
Em
Well the truth it fell so heavy
G
Like a hammer through the room
C                                G
That I could choose another over her
C                          Em
You always said I was an actor, baby
G                                    D
Guess in truth you thought me just amateur
Em
That you never saw the signs
       G
That you never lost your grip
        C
Oh, come on now
                          G
That's such a childish claim
       C
Now I wear the brand of traitor
          Em
Don't it seem a bit absurd
          G                             D
When it's clear I was so obviously framed
          C                            Em
When it's clear I was so obviously framed
 
Em
 
        Em
Now you act so surprised
   G
To hear what you already know
C                                 G
And all you really had to do was ask
C
I'd have told you straight away
            Em
All those lies were truth
G                          D
And all that was false was fact
 
 
Em
Now you hold me close and hard
G
But I was like a statue at most
C                                  G
Refusing to acknowledge you'd been hurt
C
Now you're clawing at my throat
Em
And you're crying all is lost
G                                        D
But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt
C                                        Em
But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt
 
 
Repeat Intro.
 
 
Em
Well the truth it fell so heavy
G
Like a hammer through the room
C                                 G
That I could choose another over her
C                           Em
You always said I was an actor, baby
G                                    D
Guess in truth you thought me just amateur
 
 
Em
Was it you who told me once
G
Now looking back it seems so real
C                                G
That all our mistakes are merely grist for the mill
C                        Em
So why is it now after I had my fill
G                                          D
That you steal from me the sorrow that I've earned
C                              G
Shall we call this a lesson learned?
C                              Em
Shall we call this a lesson learned?
 
End on Em

Where it says Repeat Intro, it would help if we could actually see the chords there. For all those beginners like me. :)
