Well, a fascinating sensation, no I can't even feel it
C#m B A B A E
I just had to let you know I can't conceal it
C#m B A B A E
I was recently considering taking the pain with the pleasure
C#m B A
Just to find my way to the bottom of this
B A E
I'll have to dig forever, and it's no small measure
A E A
Lift up your veil of tears
C#m B A B A E
Don't be disappointed child, if your prayers go unanswered
C#m B A B A E
We are not responsible for these sad circumstances
C#m B A B A E
Secret agents and freedom fighters on those impossible missions
C#m B A
Better put your toys and games away
B A E G#m7
Maybe take the kids out fishing for a family treasure
A E G#m7 A
In your early years
A C#m B A
Behind your veil of tears
B A
So frustrated
G D
Get up anyway
B A
So complicated
G D
Changes every day
B A
So the darkness fades
G A B
And the light, will come shining through

And you hide no more
A E G#m7 A
Lift up your veil of tears

Hide no more
A C#m B A
Behind your veil of tears

C#m B A B A E
Now the executioner must be executed
C#m B A B A E
No I think we'll set him free instead, watch him run
A C#m B E
And you hide no more
