C No one has to know Em I could always hide D But sometimes it might get to me G The things on all their minds C Like, "They donʼt know Iʼm lonely" Em And, "They donʼt know Iʼm kind" D G Or scared that I canʼt hack it with the current paradigm Pre-chorus: C Every single line Em Every single rhyme D Every single truth I sing G Once started as a lie C I promise that Iʼm fine Em But then I redesign D G And put myself together like some little Frankenstein Chorus: D Ah-ah Em Does a story die with its narrator? C Ah-ah G Surely itʼs forgotten soon or later D Ah-ah Em Hope they spell my name right in the paper C Ah-ah G A In here lies the great impersonator Verse: C Iʼm lying in a car crash Em In a pile of broken glass D G Itʼs funny how it looks like glitter from the overpass C Em D Iʼm in a pick-up truck, the door is stuck, Iʼm sinking in the water G And the girl inside is waving, but the people just applaud her Pre-chorus: C This is a cry for help, Em callinʼ for assistance D But you canʼt tell I need it when you’re G watchinʼ from a distance Chorus: D Ah-ah Em Does a story die with its narrator? C Ah-ah G Surely itʼs forgotten soon or later D Ah-ah Em Hope they spell my name right in the paper C Ah-ah G A In here lies the great impersonator
