(intro)
D Em G A (x2)
(verse 1)
D Em
Girl look at you right there
G
With that wind in your hair
A
Like a dream in the sunset light
D Em
I couldn't love you anymore
G
I couldn't need you any less
A
I guess I'm doing something right
Em A
But girl you gotta promise me
Em A
That if you ever have to leave
(chorus)
D Em
Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
G A
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
D Em
Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right
G A
And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night
Em A
Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye
D Em G A
Just lie to me

(verse 2)
D Em
Last night when I saw you in a dream
G
You were packin' your things
A
And baby it all seemed so real
D Em
You came to tell me you were gone
G
My life had ended like a song
A
I felt as bad as I could feel
Em A
So if there ever comes a day
Em A
That you wanna walk away
(chorus)
D Em
Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
G A
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
D Em
Baby lie to me, tell me everything's okay
G A
And when I got to work, pack your car and drive away
Em A
Girl, instead of watchin’ me cry
D Em G A
Just lie to me
Em A G A (solo overlay)
(chorus)
D Em
Baby just lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
G A
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
D Em
Baby lie to me, tell me everything is cool
G A
'Cause knowing you were leavin' girl, that would be so cruel
Em A
Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye
Em A
Just smile and look me right in the eye
Em A
Yeah girl instead of watchin' me cry
D Em G A
Just lie to me oh yeah
D Em G A
Baby lie to me
D Em G A (repeat until fade out)
