[Verse 1]
Am Em
If I scream at the top of my lungs, will you hear what I don't say
Dm F G
If I dance like I'm on a stage, will you see I seem out of place
Am Em
If I put on a disguise, will you think everything's alright
Dm F G
If I leave before the end, will you forget that I was there
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am Em
When you saw me leaving, did you think I had a place to go
Dm F
Since you stopped believing, I've had to put on my own show
[Chorus 1]
Am Em
I'll put on a performance, I'll put on a show
Dm F G
It is a performance, I do it all so
Am Em
You won't see my hurting, when my heart it breaks
Dm F G
I'll put on a performance, I'll put on a brave face
[Verse 2]
Am Em
Even when I was hiding, you could always find me
Dm F G
Now you've stopped looking for me, but I'm still playing hide and seek
Am Em
I want you to notice, but you just don't see
Dm F G
The show is wasted on you, so I perform for me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am Em
When you saw me leaving, did you think I had a place to go
Dm F G
Since you stopped believing, I've had to put on my own show
[Chorus 2]
Am Em Dm F G
Am Em
I'll put on a performance, I'll put on a show
Dm F G
It is a performance, I do it all so
Am Em
You won't see my hurting, when my heart it breaks
Dm F G
I'll put on a performance, I'll put on a brave face
[Chorus]:
Am Em
