B

They say a woman's a fool for weeping

A fool to break her own heart

F#

But I can't hold the secret I'm keeping

E B

I'm breaking apart

B

Can't seem to mind my own business

Whatever I try turns out wrong

F#

I seem like my own false witness

E B

And I can't go on

D Bm

I cover my ears, I close my eyes

B Bsus B

Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies

Telling me lies

B

You told me you needed my company

And I believed in your flattering ways

F#

You told me you needed me forever

E B

Nearly gave you the rest of my days

B

Should've seen you for what you are

Should never have come back for more

F#

Should've locked up all my silver

E B

Brought the key back to your door

D Bm

I cover my ears, I close my eyes

B Bsus B

Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies

Telling me lies

B

You don't know what a chance is

Until you have to seize one

F#

You don't know what a man is

E B

Until you have to please one

B

Don't put your life in the hands of a man

B

With a face for every season

F#

Don't waste your time in the arms of a man

E B

Who's no stranger to treason

D Bm

I cover my ears, I close my eyes

B Bsus B

Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies

Telling me lies

B

I cover my ears, I close my eyes

Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies

Telling me lies
