------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are You Serious ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Verse 1]
                Ebmaj7
Here's a little game

             Bbmaj9
You can play alone

                      Ebmaj7
Oh you do the walk of shame

                         Bbmaj9
From the comfort of your home

                  Ebmaj7
So here's another game

              Bbmaj9
You can play along

                         Ebmaj7
Where you empty all your blame

                 Bbmaj9
From your guilty bones
[Chorus]
       F5                  Gm*        Ebmaj7
Oh the eyes, the eyes, the eyes, they know
(The eyes, they know)
       F5            Gm*       Ebmaj7
Like a thousand tiny suns that glow
(And they burn and they glow)
       Cm                  Bb         Gm
Oh the eyes, the eyes, the eyes, they know

      C          Eb
While truth lies low

      C          Eb   Bb
While truth lies low

So here's another game...
[Verse 2]
                 Ebmaj7
Fools are taking aim

                          Bbmaj9
They got pistols in their phones

                   Ebmaj7
Holocene is on the wane

                      Bbmaj9
We got plastic in our stones
[Chorus]
       F5                  Gm*        Ebmaj7
Oh the lies, the lies, the lies, they grow
(The lies, they grow)
       F5            Gm*    Ebmaj7
Like a thousand tributaries flow
(The eyes, they know)
       Cm                  Bb         Gm
Oh the eyes, the eyes, the eyes, they know

      C          Eb
While truth lies low

      C          Eb   Bb D7
While truth lies low
[Bridge]
Eb                 Bb   D7
Vitriol from their pens flows

 Eb               Bb   D7
Anonymously their hate crows

       Bb                    Gm
But at least they care enough

   F5                    D5
At least they care enough

   Eb5                       F5      Ebmaj7
At least they care enough to let you know
[Outro Instrumental] Ebmaj7 Bbmaj9 (x8) (fade out on arpeggiated chords)
