Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][A][G]
[D][Bm][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Lyin' next to you
[Bm]Wishing I could disap[A]pear, [G]hey
[D]Let you fall asleep
And [Bm]vanish out into thin [A]air, [G]hey

[Verse 2]
It's the [Bm]elephant in the room
[G]And we pre[D]tend that
we don't [A]see it.
It's the [Bm]avalanche that loom
[G]s above our heads.[Em]
And we don't [A]believe it.

[Verse 3]
[D]Tryin' to be perfect
[Bm]Tryin' not to let you [A]down, [G]yeah
[D]Honesty is honestly the [Bm]hardest thing for me right [A]now,
[G]yeah
While [Bm]the floors underneath
[G]our feet are crumbling
[D]The walls we built [A]together tumblin'
[Bm]I still stand here hol[G]d
in' up the [Em]roof
'Cause it's [A]easier than telling

[Interlude 1]
the truth.
[Bm][G][D][A]

[Verse 4]
[D]I still keep your photographs
[Bm]I remember how we [A]used to la[G]ugh
[D]I can keep on losin' sleep
If [Bm]you're okay with being [A]torn in [G]half.

[Verse 5]
It's the [Bm]elephant in the room
[G]And we pre[D]tend that
we don't [A]see it.
It's an [Bm]avalanche that [G]loom
s above our [Em]heads
But we don't be[A]lieve [Asus4]it.

[Verse 6]
Try[D]in' to be perfect,
[Bm]Tryin' not to let you [A]down, [G]yeah
[D]Honesty is honestly the [Bm]hardest thing for me right [A]now,
[G]yeah
While [Bm]the floors underneath our
[G]feet are crumblin'
[D]The walls we built [A]together tumblin'
[Bm]I still stand here hol[G]d
in' up the [Em]roof
'Cause it's [A]easier than telling
[Bm]the truth.

[Verse 7]
Stop ignor[A]ing that our
hearts are [G]mourning
And let the rain come in[Bm].
Stop [A]pretending that it's not [G]ending
And let the end [Bm]begin.
[A]Oh [G]yea[D]h
[Bm][A]

[Verse 8]
[G]
Try[D]in' to be perfect,
[Bm]Tryin' not to let you [A]down, [G]yeah
[D]Honesty is honestly the [Bm]hardest thing for me right [A]now,
[G]yeah
While [Bm]the floors underneath our
[G]feet are crumblin'
[D]The walls we built [A]together tumblin'
[Bm]I still stand here hol[G]d
in' up [Em]the roof
'Cause it's [A]easier than telling
the truth.
[Bm][G]

[Verse 9]
[D]
It's [A]easier than telling the truth

[Outro 1]
