(verse)

B5 E5

He burnt down the house one night

B5 G#5 E5

He had a loaded six-pack gun

B5 E5

He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop

B5 D#5-C#5-B5-C#5*

You know, you never know when they'll come

(* = don't play the root of the chord)

(verse)

She said every day above ground

Was another dream come true

He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night

But I'm not in love with you

(bridge)

F#5 G#m

And I never got serious

B5 E5

'Til everything went black

F#5 G#5

And I ain't so curious

B5 E5

That I'm ever going back

(chorus: Play Intro)

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

(verse)

He said, man, you want to be Elvis

I said I ain't dying face down

He said you've got to die facing up in the world

'Cause there's too many holes around

(verse)

He asked what was wrong with me

He said I looked like a Hollywood girl

I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man

'Cause it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world

(bridge)

And I never got serious

'Til everything went black

And I ain't so curious

That I'm ever going back

(chorus)

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

(break)

(solo)

E5-G#5-F#5 (3x)

E5-G#5

F#5-G#5-E5

(chorus)

On the lie, he was

On the lie

On the lie, she was

On the lie

On the lie, he was

On the lie

G#5 F#5 E5

It's all been a stinkin' lie
