[Intro]
C D7 G

[Verse 1]
C D7
You always break a heart when you break a promise
G Em
I guess I didn’t practice what I preach
C D7
Alone, not telling you what’s so dishonest
G Em
But honestly, the dishonesty was killing me

[Chorus]
C D7
You ask a question and I lie
G
I think about it all the time
Em
I was wrong to think I’m right
C
Playing God with you and I
D7
But the truth always comes out
G
In the silence, it rings loud
Em
Where there’s smoke there’s a fire
C
Now I know what you see
D7
When you look at me
G
I will always be a liar

[Verse 2]
C D7
And I know I wasn’t doing all the right things
G Em
Thought what you didn’t know could never hurt (So sorry ’bout it)
C D7
But when the words slipped out, they struck like lightning
G Em
Yeah, keeping it from you just made it worse
C
I don’t know what to do (To do)
D7
‘Cause there’s no wrong for you
G Em
And I can’t hear your name without feeling ashamed
C
Afraid of losing you (Afraid of losing you)
D7
And so I bend the truth (And so I bend the truth)
G Em
And it only happened once, but once was way too much, yeah

[Outro]
C
Yeah, I know what you see
D7
When you look at me
G Em
I will always be a liar
C
Yeah, I know what you see
D7
When you look at me
G
I will always be a liar
