F            Dm            A7             A#
I swore that I'd become a better man for you and
I tried
F          Dm               A7                 A#
Tried to change my ways and walk the line you follow
F          Dm                  A7              A#
I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you
but it died
F        Dm             A7           A#
Told you I could never love somebody else
but I lied

F A7 A#    F
Mmm-mm, I lied
F A7 A#     F
Mmm-mm, I lied

I told you I'd be coming back again for you,
but I'm not
I'm going way out where the world will never
find me
I made a claim that I would dance until we're
bones with my bride
I told you I would never leave you all alone,
but I lied

Dm   F               A#
Ooh-hoo, Ohh hoo-oo Ooh
Dm   F               A#
Ooh-hoo, Ohh hoo-oo Ooh

I read your letter in the morning by the lake
and I cried
They were tears of joy, my chains are finally
broken
I made a vow to stand beside you till the day
that I die
Told you I could never live without your love,
but I lied

F A7 A#    F
Mmm-mm, I lied
F A7 A#    F
Mmm-mm, I lied
F A7 A#    F
Mmm-mm, I lied
F A7 A#    F
Mmm-mm, I lied
F A7 A#    F
Mmm-mm, I lied
F A7 A#
Mmm-mm, I lied
