Em Em
I'm sitting in a room
Bm Bm
Made up of only big white walls and in the halls
Em Em
There's people looking through
Bm Bm
The window though they know exactly what we're here for
Am Am
Don't look up Just let them think
D D Bm Bm(hold)
There's no place else You'd rather be
Em Em
You're always on display
Bm Bm
For everyone to watch and learn from
Am Am G G D D
Don't you know by now You can't turn back
Am Am G/B G/B C C D D G G B B
Because this road is all you'll ever have


Em Em C C Am Am B B
And it's obvious that you're dying, dy-ing
Em Em C C Am Am B B
Just living proof that the camera's ly-ing
C C Am Am C C
And open wide, 'cause this is your night
D D B B
So smile, 'cause you'll go out in style


You'll go out in style


Em Em
If you let me I could
Bm Bm
I'd show you how to build your fences
Em Em
Set restrictions, separate from the world
Bm Bm
Because the ground that you hate to fight
Am Am
Just blame the limelight Don't look up
D D
Just let them think There's no place else
Am Am G G D D
You'd rather be and now you can't turn back
Am Am G/B G/B C C D D G G B B
Because this road is all you'll ever have



B B
So smile,


Am Am C C
Yeah, yeah you're asking for it
G G
With every breath that you breathe in
D D
Just breathe it in
Am Am C C
Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess
G G
You do all this, big talk, yeah..
D D
So now let's see you walk it.
I said let's see you walk it.

About this song: Fences

This song is about celebrities and how they have to seem perfect and happy all the time, which is the only way you can make it in Hollywood. The lyrics, "It's obvious that you're dying, dying, just living proof that the cameras lying" could mean that while Hollywood is doing it's best to make celebrities seem perfect on TV and movies, people have learned to look past that and see that some celebrities are really miserable with the constant spotlight being put on them.
