Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I'd like to take this time just to apologize
The way you see me now ain't what I am inside
Really a character, that wasn't in it for us
I tried to keep it up, but when I
Looked into your eyes tonight
I saw your heart crystal-clear
And when you looked back at mine
The truth seemed to disappear
Because it was all, it was all
It was all a masquerade
Because it was all, it was all
It was all a masquerade
A masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade
A masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, yeah
I said I loved you first, but love is just a word
Said it so many times that it became a blur
You're not the only one
I'm sure that hearing it hurts
Of all the pain you had, I'm the worst
In your eyes tonight, I saw your heart crystal-clear
And when you looked back at mine
All the lies reappeared
'Cause it was all, it was all
It was all a masquerade
Because it was all, it was all
It was all a masquerade
A masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade
A masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade
Now I can't believe you're telling me that
You can move on easily, I thought
You really cared for me, I was wrong, I was wrong
I should have known my fun was bitter-sweet
And saw the possibilities of me
Playing you, while you're playing me
I was wrong, I was wrong
So I guess it was all, it was all
It was all a masquerade
I guess it was all, it was all
It was all a masquerade
A masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade
A masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, masquerade, yeah
