Verse 1:
A                   Am7
Disappear from your hometown
A6                  A                 D  Dm7  Dadd9  D
Go and find the people that you know
A                         Am7
Show them all your good parts
A6              A                 D      Dm7  Dadd9  D
Leave town when bad ones start to show
A                 Am7
Go and wed a woman
  A6                   A         D  Dm7  Dadd9  D
a pretty girl that you've never met
        A                         Am7
Make sure she knows you love her well
     A6                 A       D  Dm7  Dadd9  D
But don't make any other promises

Chorus:
    A                   Bm
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D             E
And follow you to every town
      A               Bm                E
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   A                 Bm
So when you run make sure you run
   D                 E
To something and not away from
      A                  Bm            E
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere

Verse 2:
A               Am7
I once heard the worse thing
  A6              A              D   Dm7  Dadd9  D
a man could do is draw a hungry crowd
    A             Am7              A6
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
     A              D   Dm7  Dadd9  D
But leaving out his doubt
A             Am7
I'm not sure I bought those words
     A6            A          D    Dm7  Dadd9  D
When I was young I knew most everything
      A                Am7               A6
These words have never meant as much to anyone
   A                D  Dm7  Dadd9  D
As they now mean to me

Chorus:
    A                   Bm
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D             E
And follow you to every town
      A               Bm                E
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   A                 Bm
So when you run make sure you run
   D                 E
To something and not away from
      A                  Bm            E
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you down

Chorus:
    A                   Bm
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D             E
And follow you to every town
      A               Bm                E
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   A                 Bm
So when you run make sure you run
   D                 E
To something and not away from
      A                  Bm            E
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere

Chorus:
    A                   Bm
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D             E
And follow you to every town

So when you run make sure you run
   D                 E
To something and not away from
      A                  Bm            E
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you down

Biography

The Avett Brothers is an American folk-rock band that originated in Concord, North Carolina. Two brothers, Seth Avett and Scott Avett, formed the group in 2000 after the breakup of the former rock band, Nemo, adding a third member, Bob Crawford. Subsequently, they have been joined by cellist Joe Kwon. The Avett Brothers combine old-time country, bluegrass, punk, pop melodies, folk, rock and roll, honky tonk and ragtime to produce a sound described by the Washington Post as “post civil-war modern rock”, or by other reviewers as “grungegrass”.
