[Intro]
D
 (You liar, now I'mma
 set your house on fire)

[Verse 1]
D
 I made friends with the head of police
D
 To make sure he’d suspect me the least
G
 If I'm caught I'd be out in a week
           Bm                 A
I got my story straight down to a T

[Pre-Chorus]
D
 Oh, I’d say ", “It wasn't me", hm
     G
And sure we dated once and a while
         N.C.
But if there was a motive
it's not enough for a trial

I saw you out it was zero degrees

And you had your hands
right under her sleeves

Oh, you said you don't get cold
     G
You Liar!
                   Bm         A
Now i'ma set your house on fire
 D
Running,
I'm running back to your place
      D
With gas and a match,
it'll go up in flames
     G
Now, I know you're not at home
     G
You Liar!
                   Bm         A
Now I’ma set your house on fire

[Verse 2]
D
 If somеbody goes and
 calls the brigade
D
 I’ll alrеady be too far away
G
 I brought a map and
 i've planned the escape
           Bm                  A
I dyed my hair, change my name

[Pre-Chorus]
 D
You should’ve seen
this from the start
          D
When you could've been honest,
you could've been smart
      G
Yea, we might've touched,
we might kiss
     N.C.
But darling "I’m sorry" is
not enough to convince
