A
Ask me anything you like, I'll reveal everything
       Dmaj7                         A
I will treasure the truth, you could know anything
I am but a fool to play unaware of things

A                               
Am I likely to succeed with the way things are?
        Dmaj7                 A
Judging by your smile, you're holding something back,
I'm sleepless around midnight, there's a change in the wind
      Dmaj7                   A
The remembrance of things you used to hold back
