_ Now you don't have to wear your best fake smile.
Don't have to stand there [D#] and burn inside.
Oh, [C#] oh, [A#] oh, if [F#] you're doing it like you know. _ _ _
_ _ _ [A#] She's working late and making [F#] eyes at the gun.
_ She's sick of everybody up on her [D#m] floor.
_ [C#] She wants the sun in her eyes, [F#] but all she gets is glory. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ She used to put it out and give it all away.
But now she's slipping, trying to carry [D#] the axe.
_ She's [C#] sweating under the lines.
Now [F#] she's beginning to cry.
_ _ _ _ And you don't have to wear your best fake smile.
Don't have to stand there and burn [D#m] inside.
Oh, [C#] oh, oh, if [F#] you're doing it like you _ _ _ know.
And you don't have to care, so don't pretend. _
Nobody needs a best [D#m] fake friend. _
Oh, [C#] oh, oh, _ [F#] don't you hide it all. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
No hesitation, now she gets up and walks.
She thinks of all the pain and pride [D#m] that it costs.
She empties [C#] all the tip [F#] flowers.
They don't give back to yours.
_ _ _ _ _ _ I'll find her in the ritz and fingers.
She _ lifts her head up just to blow [D#] out the smoke.
[C#] She doesn't have to look back to [F#] know where she's at all. _ _
_ [D#] _ _ [F#] And you don't have to wear your best fake smile. _ _
Don't have to stand there and burn [D#m] inside.
Oh, [C#]
oh, oh, [F#] if you're doing it like you _
_ [G#m] _ [F#] know.
And you don't have to care, so don't pretend.
_ Nobody needs a best fake [D#m] friend.
Oh, _ [C#]
oh, oh, [F#] don't you hide it. _
_ [G#] If you [B] don't believe it, _ _ you [D#m] don't need it [C#]
anymore.
If you [B] don't need _ it, _ you don't [D#m] believe it.
[C#]
So don't [B] believe it. _
_ I [D#m] guess you push, you [C#]
can't ignore.
If you [B] don't _ believe it, _ now you don't need to know. _ _
_ _ [F#] And you don't have to wear your best fake smile.
Don't have to [G#] stand there and burn _ [D#m] inside.
Oh, [C#] oh, oh, [F#] if you're doing it like you _ _ _ know.
And you don't have to care, so don't pretend.
_ Nobody needs a best fake [D#m] friend.
_ Oh, [C#] oh, oh, don't you hide it.
[F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ If you don't have to wear your best fake smile. _ _ _ _
Don't have to [D#m] stand there and burn inside.
Oh, [C#] oh, oh, if [F#] you don't hide it. _ _
_ _ _ [D#m] _ Oh, [C#] oh, oh, don't you hide it.
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [G#m] _
