                              E    D 
My brave, my brave, my brave face
E
I've been living in style
Unaccustomed as I am to the luxury life
A                 G#m F#m  B       E
I've been hitting the town and it didn't hit back

I've been doing the rounds
Unaccustomed as I am to the time on my hands
Now I don't have to tell anybody when
I'm gonna get back

C#m            C#mmaj7
Ever since you went away
      C#m7          E7          A
I've had this sentimental inclination
         Am              E
Not to change a single thing
C#m            C#mmaj7          C#m7
As I pull the sheet back on the bed
         C#m6         A
I want to go bury my head
         Am
In your pillow

Chorus:
 E       B     E
Now that I'm alone again,
               B       E
I can't stop breaking down again
               G#m         C#m
The simplest things set me off again,
            G#m      F#m
and take me to that place
         E          A        E
Where I can't find my brave face
 A       E         F#m       E
Where I can't find my brave face
 A        E        F#m        E A  E   F#m A  E  
My brave, my brave, my brave face
F#m       E   D 
My brave face

I've been living a lie
Unaccustomed as I am to the work of the housewife
I've been breaking up dirty dishes and
throwing them away

Ever since you left I have been trying to compose
A 'Baby, will you please come home'
note meant for you
As I clear away another untouched
TV dinner from the table
I laid for two

Chorus:
Now that I'm alone again,
I can't stop breaking down again
The simplest things set me off again,
and take me to that place
Where I can't find my brave face
Where I can't find my brave face
                              A   E   F#m C#m B
My brave, my brave, my brave face
 A        E   D  E
My brave face
