C/G G F C/G I've never been much at making believe Dm G Don't have any tricks hidden up my sleeve F C/G G C/G If life is a comedy, where's all the laughter? Fm C/G 'Cause here on the stage, I'm a bad actor G F C/G I don't know what you want me to know Dm G So I'll take the small parts in our family show F C/G G C/G Tell me which hero you want me to play Fm C/G How should I feel and what do I say?

Dm G Please let me know what you want me to see F G C/G Where do you want me to be? Dm G In this old mirror, I'm just a reflection F G F G But I could be brilliant, if you gave direction C/G G F C/G I have a problem of knowing what's real Dm G All my emotions, I borrow and steal F C/G G C/G Faking my way through every day Fm C/G And trying to act like it's better that way
