[Verse 1]
                C                           G
You tell me you love me, that you'll always want me
                  Am                       F
Say you'll always love it when I talk this way
               C                            G
Tell me you'll be there when I need you the most

Hold me close when the night turns to day

[Chorus]
             C                             G
Tell me your lies, babe, your sweet little lies
                   Am                                F
Fill my heart with sweetness with the words that you say
                 C               G
Been seeking the truth all of my youth
            Am                         F
Truth means nothing when you look this way

Tell me your lies (Mhm, ha-ha-ha)

[Verse 2]
               C                    G
Tell me you'll always be right here forever
             Am                    F
That you had them, but you want me better
              C                  G
Tell me everything that you ever said
                   Am                         F
Was just another excuse for what you meant instead
                C                       G
Tell me all the times that you said I'm enough
                    Am             F
Wasn't just another fickle form of love

Tell me your lies in this house that you built
                  Am                         G
Shameless when it comes to your sex and your guilt

I'll let you believe, never leave you without warning
    F        G                Am       G      F
And I'll say anything just to see your little smile
         Am      G      F
How I'll be here in the morning
         Am      G     F
Now I'll be here for a while

[Verse 3]
            C                          G
Tell me the truth when it's hardest to say
           Am                             F
Even if it means that you're leaving this way
        C                            G
Hold me close as this night turns to day
           Am              F
Then walk away, just walk away

[Chorus]
             C                             G
Tell me your lies, babe, your sweet little lies
                   Am                                F
Fill my heart with sweetness with the words that you say
                 C               G
Been seeking the truth all of my youth

How to play Lies: key, chords and progression

Lies by Zach Bryan is in the key of C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 4 chords: C, F, Am and G.

The progression the song keeps returning to is F – C – G – Am (IV – I – V – vi in C major), a rotation of the four-chord pop progression that starts on the IV chord. In solfa, that is fah – doh – soh – lah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes G, C, Em, D (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 75% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
