E7
Sipped the coffee, rush of the morning
A7
Usher in the hours of working men
E7
Count the crumbs on top of the table
A7
Before I climb the ladder once again
E7 A7
E7
Shook the hands, signed all the papers
A7
Made a way to touch the world around
E7
So polite for all of the bodies
A7 F#m7
We become victims with no sound
But when the day is done
B F#m7
I'm left alone with someone I don't know
B
Who I become when people watch
F#m7 B
Has made this place his home
F#m7
What can I say
B F#m7 B
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7
What can I do
B F#m7
When every step leads me to a lie
A7 E7
And I'm through playing me
E7
With my messiah television
A7
And framed achievements make a scene so grand
E7
They find a way to cut through the silence
A7 F#m7
And give me a place to stand
But when the day is done
B F#m7
I'm left alone with someone I don't know
B
Who I become when people watch
F#m7 B
Has made this place his home
F#m7
What can I say
B F#m7 B
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7
What can I do
B F#m7
When every step leads me to a lie
A7 B
And I'm through playing me
B F#m7 B F#m7 A7 B
F#m7
What can I say
B F#m7 B
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7
What can I do
B F#m7 B
When every step leads me to a lie
F#m7
What can I say
B F#m7 B
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7
What can I do
B F#m7
When every step leads me to a lie
A7 E7
And I'm through playing me
