Intro 1
(B minor) (D major)
Verse 1
As the gate (G major) keepers decided, (D major)
we would fade (B minor) into the crowd
You took (F sharp major) what makes you charm (D major) ing,
and you turned it up too loud (G major)
How many song (A major) s does the band
have to (D major) get through
Before you (G major) steal away (D major) the (E minor) mic?
How many cakes (C major) do you
have to jump (E minor) out of
Before no (F minor) one yells, "Surprise"? (D major)
(E major) (D major)

Verse 2
I re (G major) member us both learning (D major) that no
(B minor) one's dreams come true
They're either (F sharp major) not quite
how you saw (D major) them
Or the goal post just gets moved (G major)
That's when you (A major) changed
your expecta (D major) tions
And started (G major) rolling (D major) your third (E minor) eye
But you still (C major) don't know the (E minor) end ing,
you can't spoil (F minor) the surprise
(D major) (E major)
Verse 3
(D major)
And now the (G major) nature of your birth (D major) day
party's changed (B minor) a lot for me
What was (F sharp major) once a celebration (D major) feels
like a shameless victory (G major)
(E minor) I guess (A major) we all confuse
our (D major) happiness
With what it (G major) takes to (D major) just sur (E minor) vive
But the mo (C major) ment that the switch (E minor)
gets flipped is al (F minor) ways a surprise
(D major) (E major) (D major)
Verse 4
There's a (G major) little bit of po (D major) etry
in what you're (B minor) doing to your face
Removing (F sharp major) all the (D major) evidence of
our shared time an (G major) d space
But your (A major) eyes close when
you smile (D major) now
Because you're (G major) squeezing (D major) it too (E minor) tight
If this (C major) is how you double (E minor) down,
you're (F minor) in for a surprise
(D major)
Verse 5
There's a night (G major) club deep in Hol (D major) lywood for
(B minor) each night of (F sharp major) (B minor) the week
Watching (F sharp major) all my fake friends con
(D major) gregate where no one wants to (G major) be
But you (A major) have to muddle through it (D major)
if you wanna (G major) make it (D major) out (E minor) alive
And the ones (C major) that find the oth
(E minor) er side are (F minor) in for a surprise
(D major) (E major) (D major)

(G major) (A major) (D major) (G major)
(E minor) (C major) (E minor) (F minor) (D major) (E major) (D major)
(G major) (D major) (E major) (D major)
Verse 6
Now, I'm not (G major)
letting myself off easy (D major) here
I've been (B minor) going through it, too
I might've (F sharp major) leaned into things
more grace (D major) fully
But what good did (G major) that do?
(E minor) You found (A major) your way to rage (D major)
against the (G major) dying (D major) of the (E minor) light
I thought I planned (C major) for all contin (E minor) gencies
I thought I (C major) knew who I was (E minor) meant to be
All those road (C major) s laid out in front (G major) of me
But it's still a big (E minor) sur (D major) prise
