Chords with lyrics
"Through Playing Me" by Nathan Angelo
Chords by Peter Codington
E7E7
Sipped the coffee, rush of the morning
A7A7
Usher in the hours of working men
E7E7
Count the crumbs on top of the table
A7A7
Before I climb the ladder once again
E7--A7
E7E7
Shook the hands, signed all the papers
A7A7
Made a way to touch the world around
E7E7
So polite for all of the bodies
A7A7 F#m7F#m7
We become victims with no sound
But when the day is done
BB F#m7F#m7
I'm left alone with someone I don't know
BB
Who I become when people watch
F#m7F#m7 BB
Has made this place his home
F#m7F#m7
What can I say
BB F#m7F#m7 BB
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7F#m7
What can I do
BB F#m7F#m7
When every step leads me to a lie
A7A7 E7E7
And I'm through playing me
E7E7
With my messiah television
A7A7
And framed achievements make a scene so grand
E7E7
They find a way to cut through the silence
A7A7 F#m7F#m7
And give me a place to stand
But when the day is done
BB F#m7F#m7
I'm left alone with someone I don't know
BB
Who I become when people watch
F#m7F#m7 BB
Has made this place his home
F#m7F#m7
What can I say
BB F#m7F#m7 BB
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7F#m7
What can I do
BB F#m7F#m7
When every step leads me to a lie
A7A7 BB
And I'm through playing me
B--F#m7--B--F#m7--A7--B
F#m7F#m7
What can I say
BB F#m7F#m7 BB
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7F#m7
What can I do
BB F#m7F#m7 BB
When every step leads me to a lie
F#m7F#m7
What can I say
BB F#m7F#m7 BB
When the words just won't come out right
F#m7F#m7
What can I do
BB F#m7F#m7
When every step leads me to a lie
A7A7 E7E7
And I'm through playing me
E7--A7--E7--A7
