Parsons Gram - How Much Ive Lied guitar chord

HOW MUCH I'VE LIED

Gram Parsons, 1973

(this is a whole step lower on the record, but I like this key for

playablity and singability.)

|Em |C D |G | |

G D G C

Darling, there is something I must tell you, you must know.

Em A D

But it's so hard to say the words I feel.

C G C

This fancy that I'm on has been going on too long.

Em C D

It's time we stopped pretending things are real.

G D G C

'Cause I've been living deep in sin. I've been living blind.

Em A D

And I don't know just what's right or wrong.

C G C

To take a chance on losing you was such a silly thing to do.

Em C D

The chance I might wake up and find you gone.

C D G C

Blue, so blue, my love is burning blue.

Em Am C D

Any brighter flame would be a lie.

C D G C

Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you,

Em C D

But I know that I'll only make you cry.

G D G C

A thief can only steal from you. He cannot break your heart.

Em A D

He'll never touch the precious things inside.

C G C

So one like you should surely be miles and miles away from me,

Em C D G

Then you'd never care how much I've lied.

C G C

So try to understand the pain. It takes so long when I explain.

Em C D G

Please, don't you forget how much I've lied.
