Smoke And Mirrors
Recorded by Jennifer Nettles
[Intro]
G x 4 bars
G Am
Well I move around incessantly, but I long for something sedentary
C G
Not long enough to stagnate, not long enough to gel
A
But I can't keep still and I know just why I'm a- fraid I might get satisfied
C G
And what would then become of all this anger that I sell
[Chorus]
D/A C
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe, it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
D/A C
To keep myself from feelin' oh so small
D/A C
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
Am C
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain fall
Am C
Yeah, then she'll run and make a curtain call
[Inst]
G G Am Am C C G G
G Am
I know love ain't always a fairytale, but I tell you baby it's just as well
C G
A heart must know the tears for it to recognize the laughter
Am
And my heart keeps laughin' most of the time, and you gave me yours and I gave you mine
C G
And that is quite enough for my happy ever after
[Chorus]
D/A C
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
D/A C
To keep myself from feelin' oh so tall
D/A C
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
Am C
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain to fall
Am C
Hey, then she'll runs and makes a curtain to call
