Verse 1:
E5E5      G5G5    D5D5          E5E5 C5C5
I've got no politics, no influential friend or two
E5E5     G5G5      D5D5         E5E5 C5C5
I've got ideas, but it's nothing I picked up at school
E5E5     G5G5       D5D5         E5E5 C5C5
I might be running, but I'm never running back to you

Pre-Chorus:
Riff
 And here's a letter from the real world, I don't expect you'll reply
Riff
 And anything you're going to tell me, it's just another lie


Verse 2:
E5E5     G5G5        D5D5             E5E5 C5C5
 I had to wait so long that weeks and months that passed me by
E5E5       G5G5      D5D5       E5E5 C5C5
 You've got no power and my situation don't apply
E5E5     G5G5      D5D5        E5E5  C5C5
 You ask me how I am, I lie and say I'm doing fine


Pre-Chorus:
Riff
 And with your sugar-sweetened alibis, there was a truth I never knew
Riff
 And all the attitude you gave me, it's coming back to you


Chorus:
  G+G    B minorBm        E minorEm     D MajorD  C majorC
String of lies, it's always compromise with you
  G+G    B minorBm          E minorEm      D MajorD C majorC
String of lies, you know there's nothing left to do
  G+G    B minorBm         E minorEm      D MajorD  C majorC
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you

Bridge:
Riff
 And here's a letter from the real world, I don't expect you'll reply
Riff
 And anything you're going to tell me, it's just another lie


Solo:

Chorus:
  G+G    B minorBm        E minorEm     D MajorD  C majorC
String of lies, it's always compromise with you
  G+G    B minorBm          E minorEm      D MajorD C majorC
String of lies, you know there's nothing left to do
  G+G    B minorBm         E minorEm      D MajorD  C majorC
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you
  G+G    B minorBm       E minorEm     D MajorD  C majorC
String of lies, we always compromise for you
