Intro:|C#5 C#5/D# |F#5 |x2
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
I heard the truth was built to bend
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
A mechanism to suspend
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
The guilt is what you are acquiring
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
Still you’ve got to dance little liar
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
Just like those fibbs that pop and fizz
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
And you’ll be forced to take that awful quiz
C#5 C#5/D# F#5
And you’re bound to trip and she’ll detect the fiction
C#5 C#5/D# F#5 A
On your lips and dig a contradiction up
A F#m C#m
And the clean coming will hurt
C#m E F#m
And you can never get it spotless
E G#
When there’s dirt beneath the dirt
N.C. C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
The liar take a lot less time
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
I’m sure it’s clear and plain to me
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
Its not an alibi you need
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
Just yet, oh no it’s something for those beads
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
Of sweat yes that will get you back to normal
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
And after you have dabbed the patch
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
You’ll grieve and then proceed to scratch
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m
The varnish off that newly added calmness
C#m C#sus2/D# F#m A
So as not to raise any alarms too soon
A F#m C#m
And the clean coming will hurt
C#m E F#m
And you can never get it spotless
E G#
When there’s dirt beneath the dirt
N.C.
The liar take a lot less
F#m C#m
Time to decide on his saunter
E C#m E
Have got itchy bones and in all your time alone
F#m C#
Can you hack your mind being riddled
E G#
With the wrong memories?
Insrtumental:|C#m |C#m |C#m |C#m |x2
|A |A F#m |C#m |C#m

|F#m |F#m E |C#m |C#m

A F#m C#m
And the clean coming will hurt
C#m E F#m
And you can never get it spotless
E G#
When there’s dirt beneath the dirt
N.C.
