Intro Riff x2


Verse 1:
Gm7
Disappear from your hometown
C
Go and find the people that you know
Gm7
Show them all your good parts
C
Leave town when bad ones start to show
Gm7
Go and wed a woman
  C
A pretty girl that you've never met
        Gm7
Make sure she knows you love her well
     C
But don't make any other promises


Chorus:
    Am
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D
And follow you to every town
      D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   Am
So when you run make sure you run
   D
To something and not away from
      D
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere


Intro/Verse Riff x1


Verse 2:
Gm7
I once heard the worse thing
  C
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
    G6
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
     C
But leaving out his doubt
Gm7
I'm not sure I bought those words
     C
When I was young I knew most everything
      G6
These words have never meant as much to anyone
   C
As they now mean to me


Chorus:
    Am
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D
And follow you to every town
      D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   Am
So when you run make sure you run
   D
To something and not away from
      D
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you down


Intro/Verse Riff x2


Chorus:
    Am
The weight of lies will bring you down

And follow you to every town
      D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   Am

   D
To something and not away from
      D
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere


Chorus:
    Am
The weight of lies will bring you down
    D
And follow you to every town
      D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
   Am
So when you run make sure you run
   D
To something and not away from
      D
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you down
