Skin

Intro: Em G C Bm

Em
I drift away to a place.
G       D            Em
Another kind of life.
                    G
To take away the pain
Bm                 Em
I create my paradise.
                  G     D           Em
Everything I've held, has hit the wall.
                  G        Bm           Em
What used to be yours, isn't yours at all.

Am
Falling apart, and all that I'm asking.
C                               D
Is it a crime, am I overreacting?

Em C9      G       D
Oh, he's under my skin
Em            C9         G       D
Just give me something to get rid of him
Em         C9       G       D
I got a reason to bury this alive
Em      C9               G D
Another little white lie

( Em G C Bm )

Em
So what you had didn't fit
G                     D
among the pretty things.
Em                      G
But never fear, never fear.
Bm                      Em
I now know where you've been.

Braids have been un-tied.
G               D
Ribbons fall away,
Em             G
Leave the consequence.
Bm                  Em
But my tears you'll taste.

Am
Falling apart, and all that I question.
C                                     D
Is this a dream, or is this my lesson?

Em C9      G       D
Oh, he's under my skin
Em            C9         G       D
Just give me something to get rid of him
Em         C9       G       D
I got a reason to bury this alive
Em      C9               G D
Another little white lie

Am
I don't believe I'll be alright
C
I don't believe I'll be OK
D                                    Em
I don't believe how you've thrown me away
Am
I do believe you didn't try
C
I do blame you for every lie
D
When I look in your eyes, I don't see mine

Em C9      G       D
Oh, he's under my skin
Em            C9         G       D
Just give me something to get rid of him
Em         C9       G       D
I got a reason to bury this alive
Em      C9               G D
Another little white lie

Em  C  G             D Em
Oh, my permission to sin
Em            C9         G       D
You might have started my reckoning
Em         C9       G       D
I got a reason now to bury him alive
Em      C9               G D (Em)
Another little white lie...
