B
They say a woman's a fool for weeping
A fool to break her own heart
F#
But I can't hold the secret I'm keeping
E B
I'm breaking apart
B
Can't seem to mind my own business
Whatever I try turns out wrong
F#
I seem like my own false witness
E B
And I can't go on
D Bm
I cover my ears, I close my eyes
B Bsus B
Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies
Telling me lies
B
You told me you needed my company
And I believed in your flattering ways
F#
You told me you needed me forever
E B
Nearly gave you the rest of my days
B
Should've seen you for what you are
Should never have come back for more
F#
Should've locked up all my silver
E B
Brought the key back to your door
D Bm
I cover my ears, I close my eyes
B Bsus B
Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies
Telling me lies
B
You don't know what a chance is
Until you have to seize one
F#
You don't know what a man is
E B
Until you have to please one
B
Don't put your life in the hands of a man
B
With a face for every season
F#
Don't waste your time in the arms of a man
E B
Who's no stranger to treason
D Bm
I cover my ears, I close my eyes
B Bsus B
Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies
Telling me lies
B
I cover my ears, I close my eyes
Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies
Telling me lies
