Verse:
Gm F Cm D(bass)
She was stuck in pictures,
Gm F Cm D(bass)
While he passed time in film.
Gm F Cm D(bass)
Oh silly fame, why do you play?
Gm F Cm D(bass)
Frame by frame, day by day.
Gm F Cm D(bass)
With reels changing over,
Gm F Cm D(bass)
And dropping to the sides.
Gm F Cm D(bass)
Oh, solemn soul, see where you are.
Gm F Cm D(bass)
And look to the sides, what you discard.
Chorus:
Eb
Press your lips to mine,
F#dim Gm Eb
Breathe in deep and lie.
Cm D
When the cameras roll,
Gm F C
Hide away your soul.
Cm D
Flash your eyes, forge a smile.
Post-Chorus:
Bb D Bb D
Entertain but don�t get stuck in something you
Gm
hate.
Pre-Verse:
This part is difficult to play on guitar correctly so here's the notes to the chord:
Right Hand: A-Bb-D
Left Hand: switches between G(bass) and D(bass)
Verse 2:
Gm
Bring me the eyes of the earth,
Cm
Cut off the tongue of the world.
Gm Cm
Keep the ends close inside,
Gm Cm
To the means that imply.

And not living the life that you�re worth.
Chorus:
Eb
Pressing your lips to mine,
F#dim Gm Eb
Breathe in deep and lie.
Cm D
When the cameras roll,
Gm G
Hide away your soul.
Eb
Flashing your eyes to sell,
F#dim Gm Eb
Lying to yourself.
Cm D
Dodging truth from the start,
Gm F C
Hide away your heart.
Cm D
Turn around, forge a smile.
Bb D Bb D Bb
Entertain but don�t get stuck in something painful,
D Bb D
Something worse than nothing.
Bridge:
Cm
We could have been smart,

With the plot from the start.

Mistakes from the spark,
D Eb
We knew it wasn�t love.
Chorus:
F#dim Gm Eb
Breathe in deep and lie.
Cm D
When the cameras roll,

Hide away your soul.
Cm D
Flash your eyes, forge a smile.

Entertain.
