[Intro]  Dm  F  Bb

Dm
Standing on the front lines
F                Bb
Staring at the sun rise over the hills
           Gm
Waiting for the kill
Dm             F
Sweet anticipation, never conversation
Bb
Tears in our eyes from holding too tight

Dm
Waiting till the demons come
          F            Bb
Wait for us to see them run in our direction
       Dm
Now they're staring at us through the trees
         F                   Bb
Got us falling to our knees to teach us a lesson

Dm
So tell me
            Dm
Did you ever really love me?
              Bb
Did you ever really want me?
             Bb
Now that I see you clearer
  Dm                 F
I wonder, was I ever really happy?
                 Bb
Didn't get the chance to ask me
             Bb
Now that I see you clearer
                Dm    F
Was it just smoke and mirrors?
               Bb
Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Dm              F
Holding onto tables, pulling out the staples
Bb             Gm
Keeping you close, now we're not afloat
      Dm                 F
Point me in the right direction, answer me one question
    Gm                     Bb
'Cause I could've sworn that I wasn't wrong

Dm
Waiting till the demons come
          F             Bb
Wait for us to see them run in our direction
Dm
Staring at us through the trees
         F                   Gm              Bb
Got us falling to our knees to teach us a lesson (teach us a lesson)

Dm
So tell me
            Dm
Did you ever really love me?
              Bb
Did you ever really want me?
             Bb
Now that I see you clearer
  Dm                 F
I wonder, was I ever really happy?
                 Bb
Didn't get the chance to ask me
             Bb
Now that I see you clearer
                Dm    F
Was it just smoke and mirrors?
               Bb
Was it just smoke and mirrors?

      Gm
Darling, I have been afraid
I could only call your name
        Bb         Dm
Thank the heavens that you stayed
         Gm
But if I'm telling you the truth
When I cut the tether loose
Bb
It was me, saving you

Dm
So tell me
            Dm
Did you ever really love me?
              Bb
Did you ever really want me?
             Bb
Now that I see you clearer
  Dm                 F
I wonder, was I ever really happy?
                 Bb
Didn't get the chance to ask me
             Bb
Now that I see you clearer
                Dm    F
Was it just smoke and mirrors?
               Bb
Was it just smoke and mirrors?
