Will You Lie chords by Carrie Cimma

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

ALICE:
Gm
Stop
Stop
Stop
       Dm
The lies are all half-spoken
F                   Gm        F
Half-lies spoken all the time

LIZZIE:
     Bb
But if you close your eyes you'll see
      F
My golden pear, you hide a key
              Eb                 Ab              Bb           Ab
That can lock a secret in and never tell
Bb                   Gm
The fruit of sin weighed on the bough
         Dm
Somebody came in and cut them down
         Eb                      Bb
Now they've fallen to the ground with no farewell

        Dm             Db
Will you lie here for me
         Dm         Db
With your lips silently?
       F
Will you bite through the skin
To the sweet truth within?
              Eb    Ab        Bb
Will you rest     for a while?
Ab    Eb      Ab        Bb
Let me bring back your smile
Ab       Eb Ab        Bb
Will you lie here for me?
Cm       Db        Ab
Will you stay?

ALICE:
       Cm
The pear is frightened of the rose
      Gm
For now your thorns are all she knows
       Bb
And she's seen the pain
    F            Cm
That comes with your displeasure

And though the prick is most unkind
       Gm
You think it leaves no trace behind
    Bb             F
But it leaves a drop of blood
        Cm
Upon the measure

LIZZIE:
        F               Bb
Will you lie here for me
        F        Bb
With your lips silently?
        F
Will you bite through the skin
          Bb             F
To the sweet truth within?
Will you bite through the skin
        Eb          F
To the sweet truth within?
             Eb    Ab           Bb
Will you rest     for a while?
Ab Eb        Ab            Bb
Let me bring back your smile
Ab Eb         Ab              Bb
Will you lie here for me?

The truth

LIZZIE, spoken:
        Cm                    Gm
The truth?    I want to know the truth
