Smiling On The Surface

    E                              
I’m used to pretending to be strong
     D        F#m E
 and clueless
                         D    F#m
Am I doing this right by you?
  E                                
I seem to be coming off as wrong 
  D        F#m E
and ruthless

[Pre-Chorus]
                        Bm         
Am I telling myself the truth about
      F#m
 what I don’t know?
   E
It makes me lose my self-control
    Bm                  F#m   
I’m staring through the eyes of 
          E
someone else

[Chorus]
   A            D            
So I’ll keep on smiling on the 
  F#m Dsus2
surface
A         D                 F#m E
Hiding my nerves behind the curtain
N.C. A               D
I’m caught up in an empty room
F#m                D
Filled with second thoughts and 
gloom
A            D              F#m E
I’ll keep on smiling on the surface

                       D     F#m
Am I changing my mind again?
         E                         
All this indecision makes me shift 
   D     F#m E
my focus
                       D       F#m
Is the tension my only friend?
  E                                
Anxiety holds my hand when life 
  D        F#m E
gets hopeless

[Pre-Chorus]
                        Bm         
Am I telling myself the truth about

 what I don’t know?

It makes me lose my self-control

Hiding my nerves behind the curtain
N.C. A              D
I’m caught up in an empty room
F#m                D
Filled with second thoughts and

Am I telling myself the truth 
      F#m
about my self-esteem
        E
And how others place their worth in 
me?
    Bm                  F#m   
I’m staring through the eyes of 
          E
someone else

Yeah I’ll keep smiling on the
