The Mask

G C

Why don’t you take off the mask

D G

Let your true self shine right through

G C

I have a question to ask

D G

Which part of you is true?

G C

I asked you how you were doing

D G

You said you were doing great

G C

Then the next time we were meeting

D G

Was at your wake

(Chorus)

So they wear the mask D

Put on the smile C

Their daily task D

To fake the style C

Ya i’m alright D

I’m doin’ fine C

Should I confide? D

Declined C

Should I confide? C

Declined G

G C

Why can’t people tell the truth

D G

About their state of mind

G C

Do they think it would be rude

D G

To be so unconfined

G C

Don’t want to be a whiner

D G

Don’t want to be a drag

G C

Trying not to be a downer

D G

Trying not to be a nag

(Chorus)

So they wear the mask D

Put on the smile C

Their daily task D

To fake the style C

Ya i’m alright D

I’m doin’ fine C

Should I confide? D

Declined C

Should I confide? C

Declined G

G C

Finally I got my covid mask

D G

And everyone has them on

G C

But it’s been like this forever

D G

A worldwide phenomenon

G

Now everyone

C

Is wearing their masks

D D

A physical manifestation

D D G

Of a lifelong task
