Bm             A           G
My friends all ask how I’m doin’ 
      Bm            D           A
Since you took your sweet love away 
    Bm          A            G
And I know that they’re just showing they care 
    G                         A
But what do they expect me to say 


Chorus 1:
     Bm   G                D
So I lie, I tell them I’m alright 
  Bm     G             A
I lie, I tell them I’m fine 
        Bm  
I don’t think they really want to know the truth 
F#m   
what’s the use, what can they do
   Bm          A               G         Bm
So I look them straight in the eye and I lie 

Bm             A          G
They offer a shoulder to cry on 
Bm           D           A
Anytime, I just have to call 
Bm                            A               G
But little do they know, the river that would flow             
    G            A
If I let the first teardrop fall 

Chorus 1 Again
     Bm   G                D
So I lie, I tell them I’m alright 
  Bm     G             A
I lie, I tell them I’m fine 
        Bm  
I don’t think they really want to know the truth 
F#m   
what’s the use, what can they do
   Bm          A               G         Bm
So I look them straight in the eye and I lie 

Bridge
     Em
I’ve often wondered what I’d do if I were to, run into you 
      Bm 
Would my heart fall at your feet, would my foolish pride get the best of me 
G         A
Honestly, I believe 


Chorus 2:
That I’d lie and tell you I’m alright 
I lie, I’d tell you I’m fine 
I could never ever let you know the truth 
That I’m still in love, and so confused 
So I’d hide my pain deep inside 
Then I’d look you straight in the eye and I’d lie
