Come waste your (A)mil li ons here,

(A)se cret ly she (A)sneers.

An oth er cor por ate show;

a (A)guilt y con science grows.

(Em)feel Come let (A)the truth be (C)shared, a (A)guilt y con (Em)no science grow (A)er dared

and I’ll feel these

end less (C)lies, a (A)guilt y con science grow.

She (Am7)burns

like the sun,

and I can’t (Am7)look a way.

And she’ll (Am7)burn

our ho ri zons, make (Am7)no mis takes.

(Em)feel Come let (A)the truth be (C)shared, a (A)guilt y con (Em)no one ev (A)er dared

and to break these

end less (C)lies, a (A)se cret ly she cries.

She (Am7)burns

like the sun,

and I can’t (Am7)look a way.

And she’ll (Am7)burn

our ho ri zons, make (Am7)no mis takes.

And I’ll (Am7)hide

from the world

be hind a (Am7)bro ken frame;

and I’ll (Am7)run

for ev er, I can’t (Am7)face the shame.

And I’ll (Am7)hide

from the world

be hind a (Am7)bro ken frame

and I’ll (Am7)run

for ev er, I can’t (Am7)face the shame.
