Skin

 
  D 
I used to think by now 
I'd feel more in control 
        D 
There's things I thought I'd grow into, 
              G 
I still don't know 
    D 
And I can feel so lonely in a crowded room 
      D 
"I'll stay here" starts to sound a lot 
             G/D D G 
like "I love you" 
 

 
                D/G     Asus4 
And good things have to end, I guess 
            A         G 
The credits roll, I'm sad again 
                G 
Do I know who I am? 
If when it stops I'm lost 
 

 
   G 
Ah-ah 
                           A 
Think I'm back in the emptiness 
                        G 
Wearing somebody else's skin 
                                 D 
Still I try to be whatever you desire 
G                                A 
  Now they're turning on all the lights 
                      Bm 
Who am I without a disguise? 
          G 
I look at me and don't even recognize her 
 

 
G         A 
Oh-oh, oh-oh 
(Can't describe her) 
G      Bm A 
Oh-oh, oh-oh 
(I don't recognize her) 
(Recognize her) 
(Recognize her) 
 

 
And every year I age, 
            D 
I feel like sand slips through my fingers 
(Ah-ah) 
                          G 
And you'll notice all the nails are chewed 
  D 
I love all of my friends, 
I hope they love me back 
But I've not been myself, 
                    G/D D G 
I think they notice that 
 

 
                 D/G   Asus4 
And the darkness never lasts I guess 
               A       G 
But can't help feeling sad again 
                                   A D 
Is anybody listening when I scream out? 
 

 
   G 
Ah-ah 
                           A 
Think I'm back in the emptiness 
                        G 
Wearing somebody else's skin 
                                 D 
Still I try to be whatever you desire 
G                                A 
  Now they're turning on all the lights 
                      Bm 
Who am I without a disguise? 
          G 
I look at me and don't even recognize her 
 

 
G         A 
Oh-oh, oh-oh 
(Can't describe her) 
G      Bm A 
Oh-oh, oh-oh 
(I don't recognize her) 
 

 
D               Bm 
Feel my skin to prove 
                              F#m 
That its real and I'm still myself 
                                 G 
But in the mirror in the bathroom 
I don't recognize her 
D                Bm 
  What's left to lose 
                       F#m 
if I don't even know myself? 
                                 G 
But in the mirror in the bathroom 
I don't recognize her
