[Verse 1]
[E]I[A][D][G][Em]
[Bb]peel [A]the paint
Look [D#dim]un dernea[D]th
You'll [G#]see t[D]he same,
[G]The sam[D]e old sav[Bm] age[G] bea[Em]st

[Verse 2]
[Bb]Strip the coat[A]s
The [D#]coats [D]of time
And find mad eyes and
See those [Bm]sharpene[G] d te[Em]eth

[Verse 3]
[Bb]Nothings [A]been learned -
No [D#m]nothing [D]at all.
Don't be fooled,
Get up before you [G]fall.[Bb][D]

[Verse 4]
A [Bb]car [A]nal [Am]grave
[D#](Uh) crawl[D] ing smooth
The open flesh
And you must let [G]them [Em]in

[Verse 5]
The [Bb]glass [A]reflects
Of [D#]what [D]you are
It shows the face
The evil face [Em]of sin.

[Verse 6]
[Em]Nothings [A]been learned -
No [D#]nothing [D]at all
Don't be fooled,
Get up be[Bm]fore you [G]fall.[D]

[Verse 7]
[D]I lost my h[C]ead
Forget what I said
What's the use to try to [D]deny [Am]it.
I [C]didn't think it
Would ever happen [D]again
[Em][D][C][D][Bm]

[Verse 8]
[D]Wonder[Am]ing [C]why,
Once bitten twice shy
Never thought again would [D]I try i[Am]t
And [D]even [C]though may-
Be soon it [D]would end
[Em][C]

[Verse 9]
[Am]Wanting to [C]stop
But had to go on,
Give a little part of [D]my person,
[Am]And don'[C]t reflect
Don't remember what
[Am]I sa[Em]id[C][Bm]

[Verse 10]
[Am]I was afraid
[C]And I stayed away
Making sure of my inde[D]pendence
[Am]Isn't [C]it true that
I lost my head
[Em][C][D][Em][Bm]

[Verse 11]
Took my time
[D]And I [Bm]didn't [G]rush [Bm]into[Em] anyth[A]ing[Bm]
[C#m][Bm][G][Bm][D][Em][A][Em]
[Bm]
Showed my face
Just for[G]getting [Em]myself oh [E]everything
[Em][A][Bm]

[Interlude 3]
[G][C]
[Em][G]

[Verse 12]
[Am]Everythings [C]true
But everything lies
It's so hard to try to ex[D]plain [Am]it
It [D]doesn't [C]matter
It happened any[D]way.
[Em][C][G]

[Verse 13]
[D]And for [G]the [C]time
While someone is mine
I'll go on won't try to [D]contain it
[Am]And even[D] thoug[C]h
It could finish [D]any day
[Em][C]

[Verse 14]
[Am]I lost my head
[G]So [C]glad that I made
Right or wrong, I made the [D]decision
[Am]To take [D]my chanc[C]es
Give out something of me
[Am][Em][Bm]

[Verse 15]
[Bm]How will I[Am] fee[C]l
Tomorrow? not real
Trying to avoid [D]a collision
[Am]I lost[C] my head,
But today I [Am]can see.[A]
[Em][C][Bm][Em]

[Verse 16]
[Bm]
Took my time
And I [G]didn't [Em]rush into anything
[Bm][D][Em][Bm][D][G][Bm][D]
[Em]Show[Bm]ed my face
Just for[G]getting myself
[Em]oh every[Bm]thing
I lost my [C]head
[Em][G]

[Verse 17]
[D]I l[Am]ost my h[C]ead
Forget what I said
What's the use to try to [D]deny it
[Am]I didn[C]'t think it
Would ever happen [D]again
[Em][G][C][Bm]

[Verse 18]
Wondering [C]why
Once bitten twice shy
Never thought again would I [D]try it
[C]And even though may-
Be soon it would [G]en
[Em]d.
