[VERSE]
Well, you've st[C]arted again with the wife of a friend
On another night you hope you won't rec[G]all
And the wine that you're drinking doesn't keep you from thinking
Of the bitter taste that lingers in your s[C]oul
[CBORUS]
And as you l[C]isten to your lies, once again you realize
That she doesn't mean a thing to you at [F]all
And I watch you climb that stairway to the b[C]ottom
Every [G]evening in that mirror on the w[C]all

[VERSE]
You take pr[D]ide in deceiving one who tried hard believing in you
Even after all the lies you t[A]old
And the lies that you've spoken and each vow that you've broken
Was a new nail in the coffin of your s[D]oul
[CBORUS]
And if you th[D]ink someone's crying for the love that is dying
With the trust that you betray each time you f[G]all
Look around you on that stairway to the b[D]ottom
No one's w[A]atching but that mirror on the w[D]all
L[G]ook around you on that stairway to the b[D]ottom
No one's w[A]atching but that mirror on the w[D]all
