Chords with lyrics

[Chorus]

D MajorD      G+G
Surprise surprise
 D MajorD                G+G
I understand your shock at getting wise
E minorEm          A augmentedA
I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid
    B minorBm              G+G
'cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G           D MajorD
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did mm hmmm


[Verse]

B minorBm             E MajorE
I spent my whole adult life worrying
     A augmentedA                 F# minorF#m
That the world would find me out before too long
 B minorBm                E MajorE
I faint, I fail, my vision starts a-blurrying
       A augmentedA
So just stay strong. Or get strong

[Chorus]

D MajorD      G+G
 Surprise surprise
D MajorD              G+G
Look into these never-loving eyes
E minorEm             A augmentedA
You were feeling safe while I was feeling lonely
  B minorBm                 G+G
You thought that you had known me but I wish that you had only
D MajorD                 G+G           D MajorD
Known just what was wrong with me long before you did mm hmm


[Bridge]

 G+G      A augmentedA      D MajorD     D7D7
A augmentedA life on the run from the truth is a gun
     G+G       A augmentedA         D MajorD  D7D7
With its barrel pointed deep down in your throat
    G+G         A7A7      F# minorF#m      B minorBm
And one day you'll say, "Enough of this self-defeating stuff"
     E minorEm          A augmentedA
One false move: that's all she wrote

[Solo Harmony]

D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G E minorEm A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD D


[Verse]

B minorBm               E MajorE
And on those mornings when I'm lying
    A augmentedA             F# minorF#m
In our bed alone and realize I'm old
  B minorBm               E MajorE
My mind begins to wish that I was flying
      A augmentedA
It's not my mind: it's my soul


[Chorus]

D MajorD      G+G
Surprise surprise
 D MajorD                G+G
I understand your shock at getting wise
E minorEm          A augmentedA
I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid
    B minorBm              G+G
'cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D MajorD               G+G
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
