D
I traced it back to a couple
months before I was born
G
I must've heard my momma tell my daddy
A
That she was tired, 'cause babies make you
tired, but
G                  A
Deep down she was just unhappy

D
I think my father did the best that he could do
G
He rarely made it to the dinner table
A
Said he was working late
But he was working late
G                             A
Fogging up the windows of an '89 Sable

Chorus:
A
I, I
               G
I learned to cry
                        A
Quietly, I learned to pray
                    Bm              A      G
Silently, inside a house where the Devil played
    A
And I, I
                      G
Hate that it runs in my blood
                    A
I hate how easy it comes
                         Bm       A       G
I wish I learned how to love the same way I
          A  G
Learn to Lie

I learned to sing to Carol King on the radio
Learned to shoot on a little red rider
I can drive a stick
And in a pinch, I can pop a bottle with
a cigarette lighter

Chorus:
I learned to cry
Quietly, I learned to pray
Silently inside a house where the devil played
And I hate that it runs in my blood
I hate how easy it comes
I wish I'd learned how to love the same way I
Learned to lie

I, I learned to say things I don't mean
Like stay when I want you to leave
And when you don't come home or call
And I swear I don't mind
I hate that I know how it's done
When a moment just like this one comes
I just go numb and play dumb and
look you in the eye
And lie
Oh, and lie
