Chords with lyrics
It is the most interesting Gahan's song for me. In 2003 it became a B-side to "Dirty
sticky floors" single. I advice you to play it by barre chords :)

Intro:
G+G D MajorD
D MajorD
You give me untold riches to which I hatched a plan
G+G G+G
I drink myself to death just because I can
D MajorD
Gave me many choices I didn't understand
G+G D MajorD
Crawled across the floor I knew I couldn't stand
Chorus:
C majorC G+G D MajorD
I can't lie to myself this way
C majorC G+G D MajorD
I have to stand up and walk away

I have to stand up and walk away
FF G+G D MajorD
Stand up ×3
FF G+G D MajorD
Stand up and walk
G+G D MajorD
Away...
Hard to watch you suffer, so hard to feel the pain
But you're wrapped so tight in your one block world
Too scared to make the change
Ask yourself this question while you're playing with your gun
Is your finger shaking on the trigger, are you really having fun?
Chorus:
I can't lie to myself today
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
Stand up ×3
Stand up and walk
Away
Bridge:
G+G D MajorD
C majorC
Stop talking
D MajorD
Try listening
C majorC D MajorD
To what I'm trying to say
C majorC
If you're walking
D MajorD
You're breathing
C majorC
Maybe you can make a change
You give me untold riches to which I hatched a plan
I drink myself to death just because I can
Now I'm judge and jury. Are you having so much fun
Sitting up there on your throne? I've only just begun
Chorus:
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself today
I have to stand up and walk away
Stand up ×3
Stand up and walk
