Chords and lyrics for Smoke and Mirrors by Gotye
You’re a fraud and you
D#m
know
it
But
G#
F#
it’s too good to throw
D#
it all away
Anyone
G#
would do
D#
the
same
You’ve got ‘em going
And you’re
A#Diminished7
careful not to show it
Sometimes you even fool yourself a bit
G#
It’s like magic
But it’s always been
C#
a smoke and
D#
mirrors
game
Anyone would
G#
do the same
So now that you’ve arrived well you wonder
D#m
What is it that you’ve done to
G#
make the grade
And should you do the same?
(Is that too easy?)
C#
Are you only trying to please them
G#
(Will they see then?)
You’re desperate
F#
to
deliver
Anything
D#
that
G#
could give you
A sense of reassurance
When you
D#m
look in the mirror
G#
Such highs and lows
You put on quite a show
All these highs and lows
D#
And you’re never really sure
What you
G#
do it for
Well do
C#
you even want to
D#
know?
You put on quite a show
(Mother)
Are you
G#
watching?
D#
Are
G#
you
watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
You’re a fraud
A#m
and you know it
And every night and
Fm7
day you take the stage
G#
And it always entertains
You’re giving pleasure
And that’s admirable, you tell yourself
And so you’d gladly sell yourself
To others
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
Such highs and lows
You put on quite a show
All
G#aug
these highs and lows
And you’re never really sure
What you do it for
Well do you even want to know?
Yeah you put on quite a show
