Em G D F#m Allie, what would you do?
C When there's bombs in the middle
Em east, you want to hurt yourself
A When there's knives in the city
Em streets, you want to end yourself
D When there's fun in your mother's
C Am house, you want to cry yourself
B To sleep
Em G D F#m Allie, what would you do?
C With your fears, because they're
Em adding one by one
A And your mountains are obscured
Em behind the sun
D And the person that you could be is
Em G C crumbling into dust
G You're in the mess 'cause you
C thought
G You'd be someone else
Am 'cause the tricks in your head are
Em a lie
Am Yeah, the tricks in your head are a
Em lie
D Yeah, the tricks in your head, the
Am trick in you head
Continues after the ad
Em Are a lie
Em G D F#m Allie, hand on your head
C And a prayer from the
Em soon-to-be-closing library
A And if you looked from here, you
Em would surely see
D There's a softness in your heart,
Em G C there's a poetry to come
G You bought that gun 'cause you
C thought
G You'd be someone else
Am 'cause the tricks in your head are
Em a lie
Am Yeah, the tricks in your head are a
Em lie
D Yeah, the tricks in your head, the
Am trick in you head
Em Are a lie
D C You made a list of all your heroes
D And you thought about what they
C went through
Am Yeah, you thought about what they
G went through
F It's much darker, much harder, than
Em D anything that happened to you
[Solo] Em G D F#m C Em A
Em D C Am B
Em G D F#m Allie, what would you do?
C When your seven-year plan happens
Em to someone else
A And the people in your life you
Em would happily shelf
D When the day falls night, you are
Em G C truly on your own?
G You're in this place 'cause you
C thought
G You'd be someone else
Am But the tricks in your head are a
Em lie
Am Yeah, the tricks in your head are a
Em lie
D Yeah, the tricks in your head, the
Am tricks in your head
Em Are a lie
Am Yeah, the tricks in your head are a
Em lie
Am Yeah, the tricks in your head are a
Em lie
D Yeah, the tricks in your head, the
Am tricks in your head
Em Are a lie
