Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Could I act like you, and put a smile on my face

Not even for a second, would I lie to myself

Too many things are missing, there's a tear in my eye

It's not a question or an answer, but it will change your mind

We'll be the same tomorrow, cause we've all been painted by numbers

 We dance and I shall follow, you said it was love, I said I'd like you to be mine

Nanana nanananana nanananana nanana naa

I couldn't act like you, but I can love like you do

Between us there is something, I can't explain it to you

We'll be the same tomorrow, cause we've all been painted by numbers

 We dance and I shall follow, you said it was love, I got what I need to get by

We'll be the same tomorrow, cause we've all been painted by numbers

 We dance and I shall follow, you said it was love, I said I'd like you to be mine

Solo

Nanana nanananana nanananana nanana naa

We'll be the same tomorrow, cause we've all been painted by numbers

 We dance and I shall follow

I'll sing a song for sorrow, cause we've all been painted by numbers

 We dance and I shall follow, you said it was love, I got what I need to get by
