Verse 1:
 G minorGm
I'm your Opheliac
 G minorGm
I've been so disillusioned
 C minorCm
I know you'd take me back
 G minorGm
But still I feign confusion


G minorGm
I couldn't be your friend
G minorGm
My world was too unstable
 E MajorE
You might have seen the end

Pre-Chorus:
G minorGm
But you were never able
   D MajorD   E MajorE
To keep me breathing
    C majorC      E MajorE
As the water rises up again
D MajorD    G minorGm    D MajorD
Before I slip away


Chorus:
G minorGm      A minorAm
You know the games I play
       G minorGm
And the words I say
          D MajorD
When I want my own way
G minorGm         A minorAm
You know the lies I tell
             BB
When you've gone through hell
       D MajorD
And I say I can't stay
 G minorGm
You know how hard it can be
 A minorAm
To keep believing in me
 G minorGm        A minorAm
When everything and everyone

Becomes my enemy and when
G minorGm
There's nothing more you can do
A minorAm
I'm gonna blame it on you
 G minorGm
It's not the way I want to be
             E MajorE
I only hope that in the end you will see

It's the Opheliac in me

Bridge:

Studies show:
 G minorGm
Intelligent girls are more depressed

Because they know
N.C.
What the world is really like

Don't think for a beat it makes it better

When you sit her down and tell her
N.C.
Everything gonna be all right

She knows in society she either is

A augmentedA devil or an angel with no in between
N.C.
She speaks in the third person

So she can forget that she's me

  E MajorE         G minorGm
Doubt thou the stars are fire
 E MajorE         G minorGm
Doubt thou the sun doth move
 E MajorE        G minorGm
Doubt truth to be a liar
 E MajorE
But never doubt
 E MajorE          G minorGm
Doubt thou the stars are fire
  E MajorE         G minorGm
Doubt thou the sun doth move
  E MajorE       G minorGm
Doubt truth to be a liar
 E MajorE        G minorGm
But never doubt I love
