VERSE 1
[D]Living in.. a [A]house of cards,,
[Dm7]praying the wind doesn't [G]blow too hard.
[D]Giving in.. to [A]differences..
[Dm7]straining to keep up ap[G]pearances.
[Em7]Making believe the thread can be saved,
You're aching to leave but deathly afraid of [F#7]letting go,
..The thread's [G]entangled you so..[E]
#
[D]Jealousies.. and [A]legal fees, [Dm7]running away like two [G]refugees.
[D]Shadowed eyes.. and [A]alibis,
[Dm7]tell you too late you've been [G]victimized.
[Em7]Freedom is here but seems to elude you,
Trying to change your dreams into what your [F#7]needs allow,
..It should be [G]easy by now..[E]
[D]Why is love,, [Asus4]always the [A]last to [D]know?[D]
#
Bridge:
[G]Falling back on [F#7]better days,
[Bm]trying your [Bm/A]damndest to [G]laugh,
You've thrown those childish [F#7]dreams away,
it's [Bm]over you [Bm/A] still you [E7]ask,..
[D]Why is love [Asus4]always the [A]last to [D]know?
