Gm          F    C              Gm
There is a woman, far over the sea.
Gm            F     C             Gm
Standing and waiting, praying for me.
Gm            F    C               Gm
Here I lie sleeping, a girl by my side.
Gm        F    C              Gm
Who am I hurting, each time I lie?

Chorus:
Gm       F  C Gm
Lie to me, lie.
Gm       F  C Gm
Lie to me, lie.

There is a woman trying hard to be brave
The way that I hurt her has made her afraid
Things that I'm doing are breaking her heart
Still she's pretending we'll never part

Chorus

Gm                  F
I don't care what people may say,
    C             Gm
I know everybody lies.
Gm                 F
I'm not trying to hurt my love,
    C                   Gm
I'm only trying to get by.

There is a woman far over the sea
Standing and waiting praying for me
Here I lie sleeping a girl by my side
Who am I hurting each time I lie?

Chorus - x2
