Lie About You

          A                          E
Could you please just put the coffee down?
              C#m                     B
It's 2 in the morning and I'm already ready for bed
A                   E
Went to turn the TV down
              C#m                   B
Hand me the remote, but both of the batteries were dead
         A      E
Couldn't make decisions,
                 C#m     B
Thought I needed your permission
   A                          E
So I don't drink black coffee now
                  C#m                         B
Don't know how it didn't taste so bitter back then

            A                        E
And if your friends all see it, your boyfriend sees it
     C#m                       B
Even your momma sees it, maybe you should believe it
            A            E                    C#m  B
And I ain't got no reason to be mistreated at all

   A                   E
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie?
C#m        B
 Lie about you
A                   E
Why do I, why do I, why do I try?
C#m             B
 Pretending I'm cool, when I'm not
       A                     E
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
  C#m               B
I tried to deny you were hurting me
A                      E
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
C#m        B
 Lie about you?

          A                            E
Should've seen that all the flags were red
              C#m                           B
But in your defense I went and painted them white
      A                   E
For a minute never second guessed
                C#m                            B
When you put me down so you could pull up your pride
                A              E
Guess I learned that I'm worth something
              C#m      B
Bet you never saw that coming
      A                         E
And I hope someday you'll understand
                   C#m                       B
Your problems with me were always your own design

            A                        E
And if your friends all see it, your boyfriend sees it
     C#m                       B
Even your momma sees it, maybe you should believe it
            A            E                    C#m  B
And I ain't got no reason to be mistreated at all, at all

   A                   E
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie?
C#m        B
 Lie about you
A                   E
Why do I, why do I, why do I try?
C#m             B
 Pretending I'm cool, when I'm not
       A                     E
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
  C#m               B
I tried to deny you were hurting me

I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
C#m        B
 Lie about you?

           A
I know I'm dumb to think you regret a thing
E
But I wish you did
           F#m                              C#m
I tried to be your puppet, wear your golden ring, couldn't make it fit
    C#m/B     A
And I played along til I cut the strings
           E
I had to relearn almost everything
                F#m                           C#m
Bout who I was, who I wanna be, who you never could

   A                   E
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie?
C#m        B
 Lie about you
A                   E
Why do I, why do I, why do I try?
C#m             B
 Pretending I'm cool, when I'm not
       A                     E
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
  C#m               B
I tried to deny you were hurting me
A                      E
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
