[Verse 1]
       F/D                            Am/D
If you look at your reflection at the bottom of the well
Bm7/A                Bm7/A    Dmaj7/A
What you see is only on   the surface
         D
When you try to see the meaning,
D D7               D7
  hidden underneath
    D/A                           D/A    D7/A
The measure of the depth can be deceiving
D6/A    Bbmaj7/A
    The bottom has a rocky reputation

[Verse 2]
        F/D                         Am/D
You can feel it in the distance the deeper down
You stare
     Bm7/A
From up   above it's hard to see
        Dmaj7/A
But you know   when you're there
       F/D
On the bottom words are shallow
    Am/D
The surface talk is cheap
        Bm7/A
You can only judge the distance by the company you keep

[Verse 3]

 In the eyes of the confessor

[Verse 4]
E       E
 In the eyes of the confessor
There's no place you can hide
You can't hide from the eyes
Don't you even try
In the eyes of the confessor
You can't tell a lie
You cannot tell a lie
Strip you down to size
Naked as the day that you were born
                               A
Naked as the day that you were born

[Verse 5]
    C                   G/B
The guilt and doubt and shame
    A                D/A
The what if's and if only's
    D5               G/B   D/A
The shackles and the chains
    A
The violence and aggression
    D/A           G
The pettiness and scorn
    G            Gsus4
The jealousy and hatred
    G
The tempest and discord

[Outro]
    E
And give it up
