Verse:

Gm      F        Cm       D(bass)
She was stuck in pictures,
Gm              F       Cm   D(bass)
While he passed time in film.
Gm       F                Cm    D(bass)
Oh silly fame, why do you play?
Gm       F             Cm   D(bass)
Frame by frame, day by day.
     Gm    F        Cm    D(bass)
With reels changing over,
    Gm       F      Cm    D(bass)
And dropping to the sides.
Gm         F                   Cm   D(bass)
Oh, solemn soul, see where you are.
    Gm          F                  Cm    D(bass)
And look to the sides, what you discard.


Chorus:
           Eb
Press your lips to mine,
F#dim      Gm       Eb
Breathe in deep and lie.
         Cm      D
When the cameras roll,
      Gm  F    C
Hide away your soul.
           Cm            D
Flash your eyes, forge a smile.

Post-Chorus:

     Bb       D         Bb       D            
Entertain but don’t get stuck in something you 
Gm
hate.

Pre-Verse:
This part is difficult to play on guitar correctly so here's the notes to the chord:

Right Hand: A-Bb-D
Left Hand: switches between G(bass) and D(bass)


Verse 2:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_dear_hunter/lillian_crd.html ]
Gm 
Bring me the eyes of the earth,
                          Cm
Cut off the tongue of the world.
         Gm           Cm
Keep the ends close inside,
       Gm           Cm
To the means that imply.
        D                           Gm
And not living the life that you’re worth.


Chorus:
              Eb
Pressing your lips to mine,
F#dim      Gm       Eb
Breathe in deep and lie.
         Cm      D
When the cameras roll,
      Gm       G
Hide away your soul.
              Eb       
Flashing your eyes to sell,
F#dim Gm     Eb
Lying to yourself.
        Cm             D
Dodging truth from the start,
      Gm  F    C
Hide away your heart.
      Cm             D
Turn around, forge a smile.


     Bb       D         Bb       D         Bb
Entertain but don’t get stuck in something painful,
D         Bb         D
Something worse than nothing.


Bridge:

   Cm  
We could have been smart,
         Eb
With the plot from the start.
   F#dim
Mistakes from the spark,
   D              Eb
We knew it wasn’t love.


Chorus:

F#dim      Gm       Eb
Breathe in deep and lie.
         Cm      D
When the cameras roll,
      Gm  F    C
Hide away your soul.
           Cm            D
Flash your eyes, forge a smile.
     Gm
Entertain.


Repeat Post Chorus

Outro:
D(bass), F#(bass), G(bass)

End on Gm
