[E] [D]
[F#m]
I'm running around in circles and [C#] I'm chasing my [B] tail, [D]
carving my initials [A]
with a rusty
[E] nail, [F#m]
betraying my intentions, [C#m] man [D] it [F#m] happens without [Bm] fail.
[A] You'd have thought that I'd know [E] better [D] by now,
[A]
[E]
and it [F#m] might be some dark secret I
[C#m] keep bottled up inside, [B] or [D] just some minuscule transgression I [A] shouldn't have
tried to hide.
[E]
[F#m] It's not the size that matters, it's [D] deceit you [A] can't [B] abide.
[A] You'd have thought that I'd know [E] better [F#m] by [D] now,
[A]
[E] and of course [F#m] she knows, cuz I
can't fool her, and I know [C#] she knows, cuz she [C#m] don't fool me.
[D] She knows, I know [A] she
knows, and we might discuss it eventually, [E] when [F#m] the pressure builds till it blows
the [D] seals all out from [A] in [Bm] between.
[A] You'd have thought that we'd know [E] better [D] by now.
[A]
[D] You'd have thought [A] that we'd [Bm] know better, [D] you'd have thought [A] we'd understand, [Bm] [A] through all the
smoke [E] and mirrors, I [F#m] guess we do the best we can.
[D]
Right [A] now, without a doubt, [Bm] it's
getting out of hand.

[F#] never seen the
[F#m] phantoms hiding [C#m] in the shadows in her eyes.
[B] It's [D] not that I'm not threatened,
[A] it's just that I'm not [E] surprised.
[F#m] Good for the gander, [C#m] said [D] the old [C#m] folks but [Bm] they lied.
[A] You'd have thought that we'd [E] know better [A] [D] by now.
[A]
Now [F#m] they circle up the wagons,
[C#m]
professing deep dismay, [B] [D] that we know all the words they just [A] can't bring
themselves to say.
[E] There's [F#] so much they never [F#m] tell you, [A] there's [D] so much [F#m] they [B] hide
[Bm] away.
[A] You'd have thought that we'd [E] know better [D] by now.

by [A] now.
