^A You ca^Ent hide behind^F#m social graces ^D ^A ^E So don't tr^F#my to be all tou^Dchy feely ^ACause you^E lie in ^F#mmy face^D of all places ^ABut I'^Eve got no probl^F#mem with tha^Dt really What bugs me is you believe what you're saying What bothers me is you don't know how you feel What scares me is while you're telling me stories You actually believe that they are real

Chorus:

^F#m I've got ^E ^D no i^Ellusions about you ^F#m ^F#m Guess what ^E ^DI ne^Ever did ^F#m ^F#m When I said, ^E ^Dwhen I said ^EIll take it^F#m ^F#m I meant,^E ^D ^EI meant as is^A, ^Eas^F#m is^E , ^A a^Es ^F#mis, ^E as is

Just give up and admit you're and asshole You would be in some good company And I think you'd find that your friends would forgive you Or maybe I am just speaking for me Cause when I look around, I think this just isn't good enough So I try to laugh at whatever life brings When I look down, I just miss all the good stuff When I look up, I just trip over things I've got no illusions about you Guess what...I never did When I said, When I said I'll take it I meant, I meant as is
