Ebm Gb (x2)


             Ebm
It ain’t complicated
                    Gb
Well I’ve grown to hate it
    B
I never liked the taste of crow
            Db
But baby I ate it
                   Ebm
They tried to warn me
                          Gb
They said that you were ornery
          B                                                     Ab
So don’t bring me those big brown eyes and tell me that you’re sorry
        B                     Db
You might as well throw gasoline on a fire
             Gb Db B
The way you lie
     Gb          Db                     B             Gb
You lie like a priceless Persian rug on a rich man’s floor
          Gb          Db                      B            Gb
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking in the sunshine on my porch
          Ebm         B                             Db     Gb
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at the grocery store
               Abm                B
It just comes way too natural to you
                 Gb Db B
The way you lie
                 Ebm                     Gb
That ain’t my perfume, I bet she had a curfew
      B                                             Db
You told me you were out with the boys and baby I believed you
                        Ebm
So why you lookin’ so nervous
                       B
You know you kind of deserve this
            Gb
I ought to kill you right now
                                Ab
And do the whole wide world a service
          B
Well my daddy’s gonna straighten you out
                  Db
Like a piece of wire, like a piece of wire
                 Gb Db B
The way you lie


      Gb                            Db                B           Gb
You lie like the man with the slicked back hair who sold me that Ford
      Gb                       Db                      B          Gb
Yeah you lie like a pine tree in the back yard after last month’s storm
          Ebm                    B                  Db     Gb
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at the grocery store
               Abm                B
It just comes way too natural to you
                Gb Db B
The way you lie
 B
Well I tell you what I’m gonna do
           Ebm          Gb
I’m gonna drive to the big old muddy river
            B                                         Bb
I’m gonna park my car in the middle of the mile long bridge
                    Ebm
And then I’m gonna cry
                    Gb
Well maybe just a little
 B
Then I’m gonna slip off the ring that you put on my finger
      Db
And give it a big old fling and watch it sink
 B          Db
Down, down, down
      Gb              Db            B
And there it’s gonna lie until the Lord comes back around
             Gb           Db
Because you lie like a priceless
                  B          Gb
Persian rug on a rich man’s floor
          Gb          Db                      B            Gb
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking in the sunshine on my porch
          Ebm        B                             Db      Gb
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at the grocery store
          Abm                     B
It just comes so dang natural to you
               Gb Db B
The way you lie
               Gb Db B
The way you lie
           B
Well it’s what you do, it’s who you are
