Song is in 3/4 timing. Listen to the CD for strumming patterns. Intro: Dsus2/B - Dsus2/F# - G - A Verse 1:
Am                 G                  D
  The air that you breathe it must be poison

Bm7                        A            G
  And you're dressed up in your best disguise
Bridge 1:
  Dsus2/F#                 G
I don't want to hear what you have to say

     Dsus2/F#                 G
It's there in your eyes when you look away

      Dsus2/F#              G     E/Ab  A
These beautiful words are turning into lies
Chorus 1:
Em          G           D
How can you say that to me
Verse 2:
Am                     G                   D
  The light that still shines is just an illusion

Bm7             A                 G
  Just a memory from a burned out star
Bridge 2:
    Dsus2/F#              G
Its promise has come from so far away

     Dsus2/F#                      G
It's fighting through sadness and years of decay

Dsus2/F#                 G    E/Ab        A
Oh and it's a wonder it ever made it this far
Chorus 2:
         Em          Dsus2/F#    G       A
Well now how can you say that to me

      Em           Dsus2/F#    G        A
After all of those secrets you let me believe

           Am         G                 Gm            Dsus2/F#
There's no rose petal air, there's just thorns when I breathe

         Em          G
Well now how can you say that
Bridge 3:
Bm7              F#m7                          G
  It's not this silence that screams in my mind

           A                       Bm7
Each day I feel like I'm falling behind

          F#m7                      G            
Living in shadows, still getting burned

            Gm 
When will I ever learn
Chorus 3:
         Em          Dsus2/F#    G       A
Well now how can you say that to me

      Em           Dsus2/F#    G        A
After all of those secrets you let me believe

           Am         G                 Gm            Dsus2/F#
There's no rose petal air, there's just thorns when I breathe

         Em          G           D
Well now how can you say that to me
Outro: Dsus2/B - Dsus2/F# - G - A (repeat & fade)
