I Lied (and Allison Ponthier)

Intro (x4): E Dbm Ab7 A

Verse 1:
E            Dbm            Ab7               A
I swore that I'd become a better man for you and I tried
E          Dbm               Ab7                 A
Tried to change my ways and walk the line you follow
E         Dbm                  Ab7                  A
I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you but it died
E       Dbm            Ab7            A
Told you I could never love somebody else but I lied


E Ab7 A         E
  Mmm-mm, I lied
E Ab7 A         E
  Mmm-mm, I lied

Interlude (x4): E Dbm Ab7 A

Verse 2:
E          Dbm           Ab7                 A
I told you I'd be coming back again for you but I'm not
E         Dbm                Ab7               A
I'm going way out where the world will never find me
E         Dbm                Ab7                     A
I made a claim that I would dance until we're bones with my bride
E         Dbm             Ab7            A
I told you I would never leave you all alone but I lied

Break:
Dbm      E               A
    Ooh-hoo, Ohh hoo-oo Ooh
Dbm      E               A
    Ooh-hoo, Ohh hoo-oo Ooh

Verse 3:
E            Dbm            Ab7                A
I read your letter in the morning by the lake and I cried
E          Dbm              Ab7                 A
They were tears of joy, my chains are finally broken
E        Dbm           Ab7                     A
I made a vow to stand beside you 'til the day that I die
E       Dbm            Ab7                     A
Told you I could never live without your love but I lied
