Perfect Illusion


[Verse 1]


Em D/F# C Bm

Tryin' to get control, pressure's takin' its toll

Em D/F# C D

Stuck in the middle zone, I just want you alone

Em D/F# C D

My guessing game is strong, way too real to be wrong

Em D/F# C N.C.

Caught up in your show, yeah, at least now I know



[Chorus 1]


Em D/F# C Bm

It wasn't love, it wasn't love, it was a

Em D/F# C D

Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)

Em D/F# C Bm

Mistaken for love, it wasn't love, it was a

Em D/F# C D

Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)

Em D/F# C

You were a perfect illusion



[Verse 2]


Em D/F# C Bm

I don't need eyes to see, I felt you touchin' me

Em D/F# C D

High like amphetamine, maybe you're just a dream

Em D/F# C D

That's what it means to crush, now that I'm wakin' up

Em D/F# C D

I still feel the blow but at least now I know



[Chorus 2]


Em D/F# C Bm

It wasn't love, it wasn't love, it was a

Em D/F# C D

Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)

Em D/F# C Bm

Mistaken for love, it wasn't love, it was a

Em D/F# C D

Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)

In a modern ecstasy

In a modern ecstasy

I'm over the show, but at least now I know
