Intro:|C#5 C#5/D# |F#5 |x2
I [C#5]heard the[C#5/D#] truth was [F#5]built to bend
A [C#5]mecha[C#5/D#]nism to sus[F#5]pend
The [C#5]guilt i[C#5/D#]s what y[F#5]ou are acquiring
[C#5]Still you'[C#5/D#]ve got t[F#5]o dance little liar
Just [C#5]like those [C#5/D#]fibbs that [F#5]pop and fizz
And you'll be[C#5] forced t[C#5/D#]o take tha[F#5]t awful quiz
And you'r[C#5]e bound t[C#5/D#]o trip an[F#5]d she'll detect the fiction
[C#5]On your [C#5/D#]lips and [F#5]dig a contradiction u[A]p
And the [A]clean com[F#m]ing will h[C#m]urt
And you can [C#m]never get it s[E]potles[F#m]s
When there's[E] dirt beneath the[G#] dirt
N.C. C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
The liar take a lot less time
[C#m] [C#sus2/D#] [F#m]
I'm[C#m] sure it[C#sus2/D#]'s clear [F#m]and plain to me
Its [C#m]not a[C#sus2/D#]n alibi yo[F#m]u need
Just [C#m]yet, o[C#sus2/D#]h no it'[F#m]s something for those beads
Of [C#m]sweat y[C#sus2/D#]es that will [F#m]get you back to normal
[C#m] And [C#sus2/D#]after you have [F#m]dabbed the patch
You'l[C#m]l grieve [C#sus2/D#]and then p[F#m]roceed to scratch
The [C#m]varnis[C#sus2/D#]h off that [F#m]newly added calmness
[C#m]So as[C#sus2/D#] not to ra[F#m]ise any alarms too s[A]oon
And the [A]clean com[F#m]ing will h[C#m]urt
And you can [C#m]never get it s[E]potles[F#m]s
When there's[E] dirt beneath the[G#] dirt
N.C.
The liar take a lot less
[F#m]Time to decide on his [C#m]saunter
Have got i[E]tchy bones and in [C#m]all your time al[E]one
Can you [F#m]hack your mind being ri[C#]ddled
With the [E]wrong memori[G#]es?
