A                     D
Waiting around for a miracle
A                     D
Looking at me for a clue
G          A                Bm      G
I'm moving on, if it's the same to you
D             A                D
Too late for me, too late for you

Chorus:
Bm     F#                    Bm
On and on, changing like the weather
            G            D           A
Close your eyes, no surprise is in store
F#                      G
Look me straight in the eye,
 F#
when you tell me that lie
I can't have it though,
G                 A
I can't take it, no, over and over again
D     F#m          G  A
Who's fakin' the blues?
D     F#m           G  A
Who's breakin' the rules?
D     F#m        G A
While tryin' to fool
             D
Fakin' the blues

Isn't it time for a turnaround
Isn't it time that you knew
I never thought that I would say to you
You carry on, I'll survive

Chorus

Maybe by now you'll be satisfied
Looking to me like you do
What do you feel burning inside of you?
Living a lie, don't have to try

Chorus:
On and on, changing like the weather
Close your eyes, no surprise is in store
Look me straight in the eye,
when you tell me that lie
I can't have it though,
I can't take it, no, over and over again
Who's fakin' the blues?
Who's breakin' the rules?
Who's fakin' the blues?
Who's breakin' the rules?
Who's fakin' the blues?
Fakin' the blues
