Tom: A
Introdução: A D A E D
A E
Tell me now if you came sneaking up behind
F#m D
Would you know me and see behind the smile
A E
I can change like colors on a wall
F#m D
Hoping no one else will find what lies beneath it all
D
I think I hide it all so well
A D
Stepping out, everyone can see my face
D A E
All the things I can't erase from my life
E D
Everybody knows
A D
Standing out so you won't forget my name
D A E
That's the way we play this game of life
E D
Everybody knows
A E
Looking through the crowd I search for something else
F#m D
But every time I turn around I run into myself
A E
Here I stand consumed with my surroundings
F#m D
Just another day of everybody looking
D
I swore they'd never see me cry
D
You'll never see me cry
Chorus
Em7 F#m A
You say I'll pay the price
A E
That's the chance that I'll take
Em7 F#m
Though you may think I'm telling lies
D
But I just call it getting by
Chorus
A
Everybody knows
D
Im just barely getting by
A
Everybody knows
D
Im just barely getting by
(repeat till the end)
