    D#
Oh hush my dear, it's been a difficult year
     Cm
And terrors don't prey on innocent victims
G#              A#               D#
Trust me darlin', trust me darlin'

It's been a loveless year
I'm a man of three fears
Integrity, faith and crocodile tears
Trust me darlin', trust me darlin'

                  Cm
So look me in the eyes
                 G#
Tell me what you see
            D#
Perfect paradise
               A#/D
Tearing at the seams
                 Cm
I wish I could escape it
                G#
I don't want to fake it
                D#
I wish I could erase it
Make your heart believe

Chorus:
               Cm
But I'm a bad liar
     G#
Bad liar
          D#
Now you know
          A#/D
Now you know
           Cm
I'm a bad liar
     G#
Bad liar
         D#
Now you know
You're free to go

Did all my dreams never mean one thing
Does happiness lie in a diamond ring
Oh I've been asking, for
Oh I've been asking, for problems,
problems, problems

I wage my war, on the world inside
I take my gun to the enemy's side
Oh I've been asking for (trust me darlin')
Oh I've been asking (trust me darlin'),
for problems, problems, problems

So look me in the eyes
Tell me what you see
Perfect paradise
Tearing at the seams
I wish I could escape it
I don't want to fake it
I wish I could erase it
Make your heart believe

Chorus

G#
I can't breathe
A#
I can't be
Gm                  Cm         A# G#
I can't be what you want me to be
                             A#
Believe me this one time, believe me

Chorus

Cm        G#
Please believe me
          D#     A#
Please believe me
