C D7 G


[Verse 1]
    C                                     D7
You always break a heart when you break a promise
  G                              Em
I guess I didn't practice what I preach
 C                               D7
Alone, not telling you what's so dishonest
    G                        Em
But honestly, the dishonesty was killing me


[Chorus]
C                          D7
  You ask a question and I lie
                         G
I think about it all the time
                         Em
I was wrong to think I'm right
                         C
Playing God with you and I
                           D7
But the truth always comes out
                        G
In the silence, it rings loud
                              Em
Where there's smoke there's a fire
                    C
Now I know what you see
                 D7
When you look at me
              G
I will always be a liar


[Verse 2]
      C                           D7
And I know I wasn't doing all the right things
        G                                Em
Thought what you didn't know could never hurt (So sorry 'bout it)
    C                                            D7
But when the words slipped out, they struck like lightning
      G                              Em
Yeah, keeping it from you just made it worse
            C
I don't know what to do (To do)
                  D7
'Cause there's no wrong for you
      G                         Em
And I can't hear your name without feeling ashamed
          C
Afraid of losing you (Afraid of losing you)
         D7
And so I bend the truth (And so I bend the truth)
        G                      Em
And it only happened once, but once was way too much, yeah


[Chorus]
C                          D7
  You ask a question and I lie
                            G
I think about it all the time
                           Em
I was wrong to think I'm right
                         C
Playing God with you and I
                           D7
But the truth always comes out
                         G
In the silence, it rings loud
                              Em
Where there's smoke there's a fire
                    C
Now I know what you see
                 D7
When you look at me
                   G    Em
I will always be a liar


[Outro]
                     C
Yeah, I know what you see
                 D7
When you look at me
                   G    Em
I will always be a liar
                      C
Yeah, I know what you see
                 D7
When you look at me
                   G
I will always be a liar
