Denial Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You look from the roof to
the smoke on good [D]nights
[Em]Tall dreams at the beck of
the stars seem alright
[Bm]Your [C]heart aglow
'Cause you know, you know
It was all raised up [G]for your life
[Em]For your [G]eyes

[Verse 2]
[G]
You live in the quiet that
was sewn for good wives
[Em]Four kids with the cat,
might as well be called five
[Bm]Oh, you know[C], you know
It's all for show
The city winks at [G]your smile
It's [Em]your [G]style
You know it's not [Em]denial

[Verse 3]
Not [C]denial, not [G]denial
Time is a fickle [Em]thrill
It's not [C]denial, not [G]denial
And there's a kind of [F]heat
You leave be[Am]hind when [D]you go
It's not [Em]denial
Not [C]denial, not [G]denial

[Verse 4]
[G]
You lust for a love with the feel
of old [Em]shoes
Great highs never brand,
but the lows are all bruised
They [C]know, they know
'Cause a childhood shows
A prize is [Am]hard [C]to [G]refuse
No excuse
[Em][G]

[Verse 5]
You swear you'll come
home in the week of New Year
[Em]No leaves on the oaks, oh,
the past is too near
Oh, you [C]know, you know
How they miss you so
Wish you all the best with old [G]tears
With [Em]old f[G]ears

[Verse 6]
You know it's not [Em]denial
Not [C]denial, not [G]denial
Time is a fickle [Em]thrill
It's not deni[C]al, not [G]denial
And there's a kind of [F]heat
You leave be[Am]hind when [D]you go
It's not [Em]denial
Not [C]denial, not [G]denial

[Interlude 1]
[G][Bm][C][G]
[Bm][C][G][Em][Bm][C]
[G][D][Am]

[Verse 7]
You know it's not [Em]denial
Not [C]denial, not [G]denial
Time is a fickle [Em]thrill
It's not [C]denial, not [G]denial
And there's a kind of [F]heat
You leave be[Am]hind when [D]you go
It's not [Em]denial
Not [C]denial, not [G]denial
