Coming Clean

Chase Coy


Tom: D

        D
I'm a coward
                                                 Bm
I hide behind all of these delicate lies that I sing
          A                    D
But I'm trying to come clean
         D
I'm so lonely

Surrounded by people that know me,
                  Bm
But don't know a thing
         A                     D
So I'm trying to come clean.
     Bm                 A
And every relationship I've ever been in
      G                   D
Has fallen apart at the seams
Bm                          A
I'm just afraid I've been singing about love,
          G                       D
But I'll never find out what it means
    Bm                A
And if I was honest about what the problem is,
     G                      D
I'd have to admit that it's me
           Bm                  A                      D
I'm just trying to live up to all that you want me to be
       D
I'm a liar

I sing pretty things
                              Bm
But I never quite say what I mean
         A              D
So I'm trying to come clean
         D
I'm so sorry

I know that I can't take it back
                      Bm
No I can't change a thing
         A              D
So I'm trying to come clean
     Bm                 A
And every relationship I've ever been in
      G                   D
Has fallen apart at the seams
Bm                          A
I'm just afraid I've been singing about love,
           G                      D
