[INTRO]
[G#] [C] [Fm] [C#m]
[VERSE 1]
B[Fm]aby everything about you is so[A#] perfect in the moment
I am r[C#]eally scared of knowing my [C]infatuations growing
If[Fm] experience has taught me anything that is in fact
That [A#]perfection is just a myth
The only [C#]place that it exists are fairy tale[C]s and dreams of bliss
I Guess I’m[Fm] happiest when falling cause it’s stalli[A#]ng reality
When I h[C#]it the ground my problems they are waitin[C]g there for me
But I [Fm]am not naive its fate and I won’t try[A#] to fight
Baby a[C#]ll I ask of you is let’s not deal[C] with this tonight
[CHORUS]
Please l[G#]ie to me if that’s what it takes to get [C]me to sleep
ignorance is bliss that is [Fm]what I think
I’ll do anything to remain in[C#m] this dream... in this dream
Please l[G#]ie to me if that’s what it takes to get [C]me to sleep
ignorance is bliss that is [Fm]what I think
I’ll do anything to remain i[C#m]n this dream... in this dream
[VERSE 2]
It’s like I’m[Fm] chasing a lie while you bask in the truth
Like I’m [A#]Ponce de Leon and you’re the fountain of youth
Like [C#]this crutch that holds me up is really a noose
Sometimes I f[C]eel like Clark Kent without a telephone booth
But it’s n[Fm]ot a lie if it ain’t spoken out loud
So I h[A#]old em in and I swallow it down
Shit I h[C#]ide from my peers I’ll scream in the crowd
After [C]all it ain’t a family if I’m never around
It’s like I’m [Fm]speaking of love but never knew what it was
Th[A#]e Virgin Mary crying tears of blood
Hap[C#]piness I can’t find in a drug
It ain’t [C]right but god damn it if it ain’t fun
It’s like I’m [Fm]over my head I’m sinking just like a stone
D[A#]riving by with no direction home
Te[C#]n long years and I still haven’t grown
That shit fo[C]llows me every place that I go so
[CHORUS]
Please l[G#]ie to me if that’s what it takes to get [C]me to sleep
ignorance is bliss that is [Fm]what I think
I’ll do anything to remain in[C#m] this dream... in this dream
Please l[G#]ie to me if that’s what it takes to get [C]me to sleep
ignorance is bliss that is [Fm]what I think
I’ll do anything to remain i[C#m]n this dream... in this dream
