standard tuning... no capo
intro- Em,G, Cadd9, D x2

Em
It ain't complicated
G
Well I've grown to hate it
Cadd9
I never liked the taste of crow
D
But baby I ate it
Em
They tried to warn me
G
They said that you were ornery
Cadd9
So don't bring me those big brown eyes
D

and tell me that you're sorry
C                                 D
You might as well throw gasoline on a fire
                G  D Cadd9
The way you lie
G                    D           Cadd9
You lie like a priceless Persian rug on

a rich man's floor
G                 D
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking
    Cadd9
in the sunshine on my porch
Em               C                  D
Well you lie like a penny in a parking
G
lot
Em                             C
It just comes way too natural to you
                G D  Cadd9
The way you lie
Em                                 G
That ain't my perfume, I bet she had a curfew
  Cadd9
You told me you were out with the boys and
D
baby I believed you
Em
So why you lookin' so nervous
C
You know you kind of deserve this
G
I ought to kill you right now
D
And do the whole wide world a service
C
Well my daddy's gonna straighten you out
              D
Like a piece of wire, like a piece of wire
                G  D  Cadd9
The way you lie
G                 D
You lie like the man with the slicked back
Cadd9
hair who sold me that Ford
G                D
Yeah you lie like a pine tree in the back yard
            Cadd9
after last month's storm
Em                C             D    G
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot
Em                            C
It just comes way too natural to you
                   G D Cadd9
The way you lie
C
Well I tell you what I'm gonna do
Em              G
I'm gonna drive to the big old muddy river
Cadd9
I'm gonna park my car in the middle of the
Em
mile long bride
Em
And then I'm gonna cry
G
Well maybe just a little
Cadd9
Then I'm gonna slip off the ring

that you put on my finger
        D                              G
And give it a big old fling and watch it sink
D     Cadd9   D
Down, down, down
G                  D
And there it's gonna lie until the Lord
Cadd9
comes back around
G                               D
Because you lie like a priceless Persian rug on
Cadd9
a rich man's floor
G                             D
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking
                 Cadd9
in the sunshine on my porch
Em                 C        D    G
Well you lie like a penny in a parking

lot
Em                          C
It just comes so dang natural to you
                 G  D Cadd9
The way you lie
 D                G    D  Cadd9
The way you lie
C                             G
Well it's what you do, it's who you are
