I'm pretty sure these are the right chords. But correct me otherwise...
[E] [D#] [C#] [B]
Intro
[E] [D#] [E] [D#] [E] [D#] [C#]
Verse 1
I would [E]love to be [D#]better
I would [E]love to be [D#]free
I would [E]love to be [D#]perfect
when [C#]you look at me
But [E]instead I'm still[D#] cryin'
yes [E]instead I'm still[D#] lyin'
sad [E]to say I'm still [D#]tryin'
[C#]not to be me
When I [E]see all the [B]weakness
that I [E]turned into [B]sickness
I still [E]think I can [D#]slide
just [C#]fine on the ice
It's not [E]easy to be [D#]honest
[E]sometimes I'm just [D#]astonished
how[E] hard it can [D#]be to be [C#]true
Chorus
[E]Why do I [B]lie?
Is it [E]just to get [B]by
If I [E]give up my [B]lines
will I [C#]die?
If [E]fortunes are [B]favored
then [E]I am in [B]labor
and I'm [E]tryin' so [B]hard
to leave [C#]lyin' behind
<Intro>
Verse 2
I don't [E]want to be [D#]hazy
I don't [E]think that I'm [D#]crazy
but [E]I've had some [D#]moments
where [C#]I am not sure
and if [E]you can [D#]forgive me
for [E]just being [D#]human
then [E]I will try [D#]harder
to [C#]keep my words pure
I [E]could be on the [B]border
It could [E]be a [B]disorder
but [E]honestly I [D#]think
that [C#]I can come clean
and [E]all of my [D#]stories
might [E]even be [D#]boring
If [E]I can tell [D#]you
[C#]what they all mean
<Chorus>
