G# C C# D#
G# Cm7 A#m7 D#7

Verse 1:
G#      Cm      C#    D#
 I guess I never really knew you
            G#
That face you chose to show me
  Cm7      A#m7
Was nothing but a clever mask
D#7          G#
Customized personally

    Cm     C#
And I can't really blame ya
  D#        G#
No matter how I'd shame ya
      Cm7           A#m7
Cause the person I thought you were
   D#        Fm
Was a false identity

Chorus:
C#    D#    Fm
Now I can't be bothered
C#     D#   Fm
Swimming in the waters of
C#  D#  G#
All your tears

Verse 2:
     Cm        C#       D#        G#
And the ripples reach too far while the steady currents are
Cm7   A#m7 D#7
Carrying me away
G#     Cm         C#    D#      G#
And those words I'm dying to say are flooded by the fray
    Cm7   A#m7  D#7
Through all your tears

Chorus:
Fm    C#    D#   Fm
  Now I can't pretend to hide
     C#    D#   Fm
when I'm swallowed by the tide
   C#  D#  G#
From all your tears

Bridge:
F#/G#              Cdim        C#/G#
  All your tears can't wash away your constant lies
                     F#/G#
They crystallize within my mind and it's no surprise
     Cdim           C#/G#
That I'm quick to find that your anguished cries
  G#
Are broken dams that supply the rise of
D#     D#7
All your tears

Verse:
G#   Cm      C#        D#       G#
Your persona was a fiction And I'm scalded by the friction
     Cm7        A#m7     D#7
From the heat that left my spirit cauterized

G#    Cm      C#     D#         G#
And the smoldering remains that feel like phantom pains
    Cm7     A#m7      D#7       Fm
Were a part of me I left that was burned by your lies

Chorus:
   C#    D#     Fm
I consider it severance pay
     C#       D#    Fm
For the dirty job you did that day
    C#  D#  G#
Through all your tears

Outro:
G#    Cm     C#        D#            G#
It was quite a revelation that the version of you in my imagination
   Cm        A#m7     D#7
Was better than your true identity

Fm     C#    D#    Fm
  Life is pain but love is strange
     C#      D#     Fm
There is truth behind every cliche
  C#         D#     Fm
And each of them has drained away
     C#  D#   G#   Cm C# D#
Through all your tears

D#       G# Cm7 A#m7 D#7
All your tears
 Fm    C#     D#    Fm
Now I'm heading for higher ground
     C#    D#    Fm
Cos I refuse to stick around
C#    D#    Fm
Waiting just to drown
  C#  D#  G#
In all your tears
