       G                              Am
Well I move around incessantly, but I long for something sedentary
    C                            G
Not long enough to stagnate, not long enough to gel
                                                  A
But I can't keep still and I know just why I'm a- fraid I might get satisfied
    C                                  G
And what would then become of all this anger that I sell

[Chorus]
        D/A                                      C
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe, it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
   D/A                            C
To keep myself from feelin' oh so small
        D/A                               C
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
    Am                                    C
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain fall
      Am                                 C
Yeah, then she'll run and make a curtain call

       G                                    Am
I know love ain't always a fairytale, but I tell you baby it's just as well
  C                                   G
A heart must know the tears for it to recognize the laughter
                                                      Am
And my heart keeps laughin' most of the time, and you gave me yours and I gave you mine
    C                           G
And that is quite enough for my happy ever after

[Chorus]
        D/A                                     C
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
   D/A                            C
To keep myself from feelin' oh so tall
        D/A                               C
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
    Am                                    C
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain to fall
     Am                                   C
Hey, then she'll runs and makes a curtain to call

[Chorus]
        D/A                                     C
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
   D/A                            C
To keep myself from feelin' oh so tall
        D/A                               C
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
    Am                                    C
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain to fall
     Am                            C    G
Hey, then I run and make a curtain call
