Tragic Comedy

[Verse 1]
E                    G#m
Stencils & needles & ink
       D#m
Covered up all the scars that I wore
E                      G#m
A decoy designed on my skin
     D#m
Until I wasn’t me anymore
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E
If it’s weakness
E
I’ve achieved it
G#m
If it’s sorrow
D#m
I deceived it
E
If these colours
E
Were my feelings
G#m             D#m
Then my blood is black for a reason
 
 
[Chorus]
Emaj7
Look what I became
Emaj7
My tragic comedy
G#m
Did I entertain?
D#m
Aye aye
Emaj7
Covered in mistakes
Emaj7
Honestly, honestly
G#m           F#m
I am just a fake
Emaj7
 
 
[Verse 2]
Emaj7
I like the bruises, they covеr the cuts
    G#m                       D#m
The cuts turn to scars, & the scars turn to art
Emaj7
Lеaving an outline with lesions & marks
    G#m                       D#m
For last minute tattoos, that don’t mean that much, & I -
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Emaj7
Bury weakness
Emaj7
Underneath them
G#m
All this sorrow
D#m
Got me thinkin’
Emaj7
If these colours
Emaj7
Were my feelings
G#m                D#m
Then my blood runs black for a reason
 
 
[Chorus]
Emaj7
Look what I became
Emaj7
My tragic comedy
G#m
Did I entertain?
D#m
Aye aye
Emaj7
Covered in mistakes
Emaj7
Honestly, honestly
G#m           D#m
I am just a fake
Emaj7
 
 
[Interlude]
Emaj7   G#m   D#m
(oh)
Emaj7   G#m   D#m
(oh)
 
  
[Bridge]
         Emaj7
Would you show me
                            F#
Which of my wounds made you loathe me?
                           G#m
Which of my flaws hurt you mostly?
                             D#m
All of these faults, yet, you chose me
        Emaj7
Still, expose me
                         F#
Peel off my skin, oh, so slowly
                          G#m
You'll find a boy, oh, so lonely
                       D#m
He is why you couldn't know me
