Strum
D-DU-UDU
 You can lie  to yourself, you can lie  to the world
 You can lie  to the one you call  your girl
 You can humble  yourself to the hearts  that you stole
 Wondering who's  gonna love you when you  grow old
 With a fistful  of courage and a heart  full of rage
 I realized  I'd locked myself  in a cage
 I'll be the one  standing there with my watery  eyes
 I'll be the fool  in the mirror asking  you why...asking why
 When I got to the end of my dirty rainbow
 and I found that there was no pot of gold
 Well, I learned that I was empty and not quite as strong
 for I had robbed my heart and cheated my soul
 Look for the one with the watery eyes
 I'll be the fool in the mirror asking you why
 Cursing lovers in a warm tender embrace
 Scoffing at the world and the whole human race
 You can run, you can hide
 You can feed your foolish pride
 You can use and abuse
 In the end you'll always lose...at the game
 (Solo)
 You can run, you can hide
 You can feed your foolish pride
 with the hearts that you stole
 and an empty pot of gold
 and the lover's warm embrace
 and the whole damned human race
 You can use and abuse
 in the end you'll always lose...at the game
 For I cheated  myself at solitaire
