[Verse]
Am G F E
Break me in, teach us to cheat
Am G F E
And to lie, and cover up what shouldn't be shared
Am G F E
And the truth's unwinding, scraping away
Am G F E
At my mind Please stop asking me to describe
[Chorus]
F C E
For one mo-ment
Am G F C
I wish you'd hold your stage
E
With no feelings at all
F C E
Open-mind-ed
Am G F C E
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
These verses and choruses are exactly the same as the previous ones.
[Verse]
Self-expressed
Exhausting for all to see and to be
What you want and what you need
And the truth's unwinding
Scraping away at my mind
Please stop asking me to describe
[Chorus]
F C E
For one mo-ment
Am G F C
I wish you'd hold your stage
E
With no feelings at all
F C E
Open-mind-ed
Am G F C E
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
F C E
For one mo-ment
Am G F C
I wish you'd hold your stage
E
With no feelings at all
F C E
Open-mind-ed
Am G F C E
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
