[Verse 1]
Why Ddo I stAay when you´re leBmaving?
I´ve got spGlinters in my fBmingers from the dGamage that you`ve dAone
So Dwhy does it hAurt when you`re spBmeaking?
All my woGrds that you keep twBmisting till you`ve tGurned them all arAound
GThese shallow heiAghts stGitch me up inAside
[Chorus]
Cuz BmI, AI feel beF#mtter when i`m lying to
BetGter when I`m lying to mBmyselfA  
I feel beF#mtter when i`m lying to
BeGtter when I`m lying to mBmyselfA  G  A  
I feel betGter when I`m lying to myBmself
[Verse 2]
WhDy do I stAay when you´re leBmaving?
I´ve got hoGles left in my pocBmket from betGting against the odAds
So wDhy do I caAve when you`re beBmgging?
For the seGcond chance that AI have given yGou so many tiAmes
GThese shallow heiAghts stGitch me up inAside
[Chorus]
Cuz BmI, AI feel beF#mtter when i`m lying to
BetGter when I`m lying to mBmyselfA  
I feel beF#mtter when i`m lying to
BeGtter when I`m lying to mBmyselfA  G  A  
I feel betGter when I`m lying to myBmself
[Bridge]
And my hGead and my head and my head`s in the clAouds
And you`re calGling me up saying you`re leaving tAown
Tell me wGhere, Tell me where, Tell me where are we nAow?Bm  
[Chorus]
Cuz BmI, AI feel beF#mtter when i`m lying to
BetGter when I`m lying to mBmyselfA  
I feel beF#mtter when i`m lying to
BeGtter when I`m lying to mBmyselfA

BettAer when I'm lying to mBmyselfA  G  A  
I feel beGtter when I`m lying to
BeAtter when I`m lying to myBmself
