Intro: C F C G C Em C F You see me now, as large as life G C But underneath, you knew all too well Em C F The hollow shell, no spark of life G C Where once upon a time, there beat a heart Em Am Em For you and you knew it, from the start C Am Bb C And you went and blew it, all away Em F And you knew how, oh, you knew best G C The strings to pull and buttons to press Em C F To wind me up, or make me shake G C You controlling every move I make Em Am Em How could I've seen through it, all the pain C Am C And you put me through it Bb G Over and over again Bb G C Just tell me, over and over and over Chorus: Am Bb G C How could you say there was no other? Am Bb G C Why is it, nothing's what it seems? Am Bb G C You told me I'm your greatest lover Am Bb G C Do you even know what that word means? C7 Your loving is cooling Am F Baby, who ya think you're fooling? Dm F C 'Cause when I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams Dm F C Em When I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams Bridge: Am Stop it! Stop it! Don't you say a word C G Em7 I put my hands around her neck and everything went blurred Am Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hand Am G C She lay so still and lifeless, I cried, "Baby, baby, baby" Chorus: Am Bb G C How could you say there was no other? Am Bb G C Why is it, nothing's what it seems? Am Bb G C You told me I'm your greatest lover Am Bb G C Do you even know what that word means?
