Flawed Design

Intro : Em - G - D - Am

Em                           G   
When i was a young boy I was 
                           D
honest and i had more self control
                         Am
If I was tempted I would run
Em                        G      
Then when i got older I began to 
                    D
lie to get exactly what I wanted 
when I
       Am
wanted it and i wanted it
Em                  
Now im having trouble 
        G                         
differentiating between what I want 
D
and what i need
            Am
to make me happy
Em                            G  
So instead of thinking I just act
 before I have the chance to 
D
contemplate
                   Am
the consequence of action

Pre-chorus :
Em
And I will turn off
G
And I will shut down
D                        Am
Burying the voices of my conscience 
hitting ground
Em
And I will turn off
G
And I will shut down
D                                
The chemicals are restless in my 
Am
head

Chorus :
        Em
Cause I lie
              G                    
Not because i want to but i seem to
 D               Am
 need to all the time

       Em
Yeah i lie
                G
And i dont even know it
              D              Am
Maybe this is all a part of my 
flawed design

Em - G - D - Am

Em                                
And ever since i figured out that i 
G
could control other people
D                                 
I've had trouble sleeping with 
  Am
both eyes closed
Em                           G   
And if i ask permission if i make
                         D
 sure its okay I promise i wont slip
 up
                  Am
this time you can trust me
Em                                 
But never take advice from someone 
G                          D
who just admitted to being devious
                      Am
Who just confessed to treason
Em                         
And I would also never ask a 
    G                           D
question that i can not ask myself 
for it
                    Am
might dirty up your conscience

Chorus :
        Em
Cause I lie
              G                    
Not because i want to but i seem to
 D               Am
 need to all the time
       Em
Yeah i lie
                G
And i dont even know it
              D
Maybe this is all a part of my..

Bridge :
C                                 
And how can you say those things 
   Am
why cant you just believe
C                                 
And how can you say those things 
          Am
and keep a straight face
C                                 
And how can you say those things 
   Am
why cant we just believe
C                                 
And how can you say those things 
          D
and keep a straight face

Pre-chorus :
Em
And I will turn off
G
And I will shut down
D                        Am
Burying the voices of my conscience 
hitting ground
Em
And I will turn off
G
And I will shut down
D                                
The chemicals are restless in my 
Am
head

Chorus :
        Em                G       
Cause I lie not because i want to 
              D               Am
but i seem to need to all the time
       Em                  G
Yeah i lie and i dont even know it
              D             Am
Maybe this is all a part of my..
      Em                     G    
And i lie, and if i could control 
                  D              
it, maybe i would leave this all 
Am
behind
       Em                    G
Yeah i lie, and i don't even know it
              D             Am      
             Em (final strum)
Maybe this is all a part of my...
