Misc Originals – Curt Buchan - Faking A Smile (Guitar)

Am           G          C
In the world today a man can’t show he’s weak,

        Am              G               C
Which is why we’d rather drink away the pain than speak,

Am               G              C
Caught up in the all lies that weve been told,

     Am            G           C
Won’t help you get out of this god for saken hole,

F              C                  G         Am
Fighting those silent battles when no one’s around,

          Am        G              C
Feels like I can’t show my face in my own hometown,

F              C                   G           Am
Fighting those silent battles when no one would know,

    Am                 G                  C
But staying awhile and Faking a smile is a hard road to go,

    Am             G                    C
It’s an undisputed fact that when youre forced to face your fears,

         Am                    G             C
You’ll be thinkin what was the fuss, looking back in a few years

Am                    G
Asking that girl out, getting that dream job,

C
gotta take your sweet time,

      Am             G                            C           
Cause in the end it all works out, don’t worry you’ll be fine

F              C                  G         Am
Fighting those silent battles when no one’s around,

          Am        G              C
Feels like I can’t show my face in my own hometown,

F              C                   G           Am
Fighting those silent battles when no one would know,

    Am                 G                  C
But staying awhile and Faking a smile is a hard road to go

      Am             G
Youve got a hopeless feelin

          C
like youre driving right into the sun

   Am                  G
But stayin a while and faking a smile,

C
Isn’t for everyone
