In Your Perfect World

Intro:  G#m  E  F#  G#m

        G#m
Seems I just can't do enough
        E
I could never win your love
              B
Why should I try
                           F#
When you never share your feelings?
          G#m
How could I be so naïve? 
      E
Is it so hard to believe
            B                   Ebm
That you excel in emotional concealing?
   C#m
No matter what I do 
        G#m
I never measure up for you
E                      F#             G#m
But you just keep that smile on your face
          C#m
No matter how much I try
             G#m
You're never really satisfied
E                       F#
 Until you run away and hide

                 G#m
In your perfect world
                         E
Where there's no one to blame
                     F#
No one can hurt your feelings
                      G#m
And you don't feel no pain

Everybody loves you
                 E
And nobody gets burned
                    F#
As long as you are living
                 G#m
In your perfect world

              G#m
It seems like everyone gets screened
        E
On your answering machine
                B
Can't take the call
                    F#
And let down your defenses
              G#m
You can't let anybody see
          E
Your real personality
       B                           Ebm
Is it pride, or just your false pretenses?
        C#m
Maybe a part of you has died
            G#m
Because you keep it all inside
     E                  F#             G#m
But still you wear that smile on your face
            C#m
It seems no matter what I do
       G#m
I just can't get through to you
 E                          F#
But I always know where to find you

                 G#m
In your perfect world
                     E
Where nothing can go wrong
                    F#
You're always in control
                 G#m
And we all get along

And everything is beautiful
                E
No need for concern
                  F#
As long as you are living
                 G#m
In your perfect world
