Like every one else will do, I'm gonna lie to you

And tell you that life is cruel but someday your gonna wake up

With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes.
  
Verse two

Like time,  time is the greatest healer, but its a murderer a day
  
Repeat Chorus
  
Mid 8
C7(Still from last chord of the chorus)           Em7          F
         You know me holding you won't change anything,
                                      Em7          F
I can't stop this whole charade continuing,
                                     G                   F
As each consoling kiss remains on your face,
          Dm                 G                 C                  C7
Like a stamp........ 
  
Verse three
So cry, cry out those tears and let them,   succumb to gravity
And try, try as I might I'll never,       fill that vacancy
  
Last Chorus (A little different to the others at the end)
                     G                              G7
Like everyone else will do, I'm gonna lie to you,
                        Dm                  Fm                         Em7
And tell you that life is cruel but someday your gonna wake up,
        Dm7                G                       C
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes,
C7                            Em7   
Someday your gonna wake up,
        F                      G                      C              
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes.
