In Layers Chords

(ver. 1)
Steve Taylor And The Perfect Foil
E
You were the first in line
                  C
The first to volunteer
               E
Now you're the last to learn
                        C
They aren't what they appear


        E
If it's naivety
                     C
It looks best on the young
        E
Give it time, and you'll be
            C
Comfortably dumb

E
You fall in

You grin

You fake it
C
Something stirs

And the perks can't shake it
E
Ask around

Get shrugs from players
C
Leads and lies

Come wrapped in layers

E
Lies
                     C
We've all been compromised
A
Lies
                  C
Now are you so surprised?

     E
It's in the air, she said
                      C
As she took a shallow breath
            E
It's in the walls and floors
                C
Leaching a slow death

              E
They call you paranoid
                      C
It's how they seize control
                E
And once you're pacified
                         C
They're gonna steal your soul

E
You say enough

They call the big boys
C
You blow the whistle

They crank the white noise
E
You fight back

They send more players
C
Kick all you want

You're lost in layers

E
Lies
                     C
We've all been compromised
A
Lies
                  C
Now are you so surprised?

E
Liberty stares you down
          C
Before it dies
A
Lies
                  C
Now are you so surprised?

E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise

            E
You hit the first clue
                       C
If you drill down far enough
           E
It's gonna stare you down
                    C
Until it calls your bluff

          E
We're all hoarders here
                    C
Caught in layers of sin
          E
It's been stratified
                  C
Beneath our onion skin

E
Throw up your hands

And hell keeps yawning
C
Open your eyes

There's a new world dawning
E
Sun burns fog

Burns all naysayers
C
Love, like a child

Comes wrapped in layers

E
Rise
                     C
We've all been compromised
A
Right
               C
Now are you so surprised?

E
Liberty stared you down
          C
Before he died
A
Rise
                  C
Now are you so surprised?

E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
E
Good ol' boys

Crank up the white noise
