My Mirror

B  G  A

[Verse 1]
A                    Bm           
    When I feel your eyes on me I 
Abm
fall to my knees
      G                     A
And I wait for your look to judge 
and define me
            Bm             B
I'm just a thin shell breaking in 
your palm
G                       A
Starving for substance, identity
A                       Bm  
I am not afraid of this act of 
             Abm
mutual creation
G                  A
I take from you as you take from me
             Bm                 
Like nervous hands reaching out for 
Abm
each other
G                              
Your eyes can tell no lies, I am 
       A
what you see

[Chorus]
          Bm
You're my mirror
             A
Everything I do I see in you
          G
You're my mirror
        A
In your eyes I hide
          Bm
You're my mirror
         A
What you see is what you're giving 
me
          G
You're my mirror
        A
In your eyes

[Verse 2]
A             Bm              
   As I turn around to leave, I’m 
Abm
still in your spell
          G                        
I catch a glimpse of my reflection 
       A
in the window by your bed
        Bm                        
What an odd surprise to bump into 
Abm              G
myself like that…Uhmm
A                          Bm    
   I can see right through myself
        Abm
 to the flowers on your lawn
        G                    
And the empty space before me 
          A
swallows everything you give
Bm                                 
  I turn back to your look to find 
Abm
peace in your eyes
G                   B    A
I'm nothing without you, I'm hollow 
without you

[Chorus]
          Bm
You're my mirror
             A
Everything I do I see in you
          G
You're my mirror
        A
In your eyes I hide
          Bm
You're my mirror
         A
What you see is what you're giving 
me
          G
You're my mirror
        A
In your eyes


[Verse 3]
G                           Gbm  
    I find in his look an 
                  G
insecurity childishly submissive
                     Gbm         
I say foolish things I do strange 
              G
things for attention
He finds within me some kind of 
  Gbm
unfamiliar hardness
G                                 
   He sees both the child and the 
A
cynic
E              B              A
   Everyhing I hold inside of me
Bm                    E
Everything I'm hoping I can be

[Chorus]
Gbm         Bm
You're my mirror
             A
Everything I do I see in you
           G
You're my mirror
        A
In your eyes I hide
           Bm
You're my mirror
         A
What you see is what you're giving 
me
          G
You're my mirror
             A
It's in your eyes
           Bm
You're my mirror
