Perfect Lie

Sheryl Crow

Tom: F

Intro: F Cm Gm Bbm Bbm7 
 
F                   Cm 
Burn like a cigarette 
                       Gm 
All inside my head 
                 Bbm           Bbm7 
Reminding me not to forget 
F                                   Cm 
Words,words I'd never say 
Gm 
Things along the way 
      Bbm                          Bbm7 
Their tellingme that I'mthe best 
C                                  C/Bb                  F/A                  Bb 
'Cause your face it doesn't look like it did 
C                  C/Bb                 G#                                Bb 
You give a way every thing now that you've hid 
 
 
F                                 Cm 
You, you want to be only 
                         Gm 
To never get lonely 
               Bbm                   Bbm7                  F 
So you opened up your arms and took me in 
                       Cm 
And this our last goodbye 
                       Gm 
And this is a perfect lie 
                  Bbm                 Bbm7                 F 
Told by someone that I used to know back then 
 
Repeat Into 
 
F                   Cm 
Help, help is on the way 
                       Gm 
That's what they all say 
                 Bbm           Bbm7 
It's a thing that they don't know 
F                                   Cm 
'Cause I, I know everything 
Gm 
And maybe it's just a ring 
     Bbm                          Bbm7 
But that won't make me let it go 
C                                  C/Bb                  F/A                  Bb 
Look at your face it doesn't look like it did 
C                  C/Bb                 G#                                Bb 
You give away everything now that your here 
 
 
F                                 Cm 
You, you want to be only 
                         Gm 
To never get lonely 
               Bbm                   Bbm7                  F 
So you opened up your arms and took me in 
                       Cm 
And this our last goodbye 
                       Gm 
And this is a perfect lie 
                  Bbm                 Bbm7                 F 
Told by someone that I used to know back then 
 
Intro chords twice 
 
 
C                                  C/Bb                  F/A                  Bb 
Look at your face it doesn't look like it did 
C                   C/Bb 
You hide your love 
                         G#                Bb         G#            Bb 
But your not willing now to give, willing now to give

                       Cm 
And this our last goodbye
