   G             D
I need another story,
                 F#m/C#
Something to get off my chest.
                    Bm
My life gets kinda boring,
                       G
Need something that I can confess.
              D
‘Til all my sleeves are stained red
             F#m/C#
From all the truth that I’ve said,
           Bm
Come by it honestly I swear.
                    G
Thought you saw me wink, no,
I’ve been on the brink, so

Chorus:
                       D
     Tell me what you want to hear,
                         F#m/C#
     Something that will light those ears,
                     Bm
     Sick of all the insincere,
                        G                D
     So, I’m gonna give all my secrets away.
                                  F#m/C#
     This time don’t need another perfect lie,
                                 Bm
     Don’t care if critics ever jump in line,
                    G                D
     I’m gonna give all my secrets away.

My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And every day I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Send it straight to gold
But I don't really like my flow, no

Chorus

      D                       F#m/C#
   Uuh, got no reason, got no shame,
                         Bm
   Got no family, I can blame.
                           G
   Just don’t let me disappear,
   I’ma tell you everything.

Chorus - x2

D F#m/C# Bm G                D
            All my secrets away. - x2
