Bm G D
Bm G D
Bm A G
My friends all ask how I’m doin’
Bm D A
Since you took your sweet love away
Bm A G
And I know that they’re just showing they care
G A
But what do they expect me to say
Chorus 1:
Bm G D
So I lie, I tell them I’m alright
Bm G A
I lie, I tell them I’m fine
Bm
I don’t think they really want to know the truth
F#m
what’s the use, what can they do
Bm A G Bm
So I look them straight in the eye and I lie

Bm A G
They offer a shoulder to cry on
Bm D A
Anytime, I just have to call
Bm A G
But little do they know, the river that would flow
G A
If I let the first teardrop fall
Chorus 1 Again
Bm G D
So I lie, I tell them I’m alright
Bm G A
I lie, I tell them I’m fine
Bm
I don’t think they really want to know the truth
F#m
what’s the use, what can they do
Bm A G Bm
So I look them straight in the eye and I lie
Bridge
Em
I’ve often wondered what I’d do if I were to, run into you
Bm
Would my heart fall at your feet, would my foolish pride get the best of me
G A
Honestly, I believe
Chorus 2:
That I’d lie and tell you I’m alright
I lie, I’d tell you I’m fine
I could never ever let you know the truth
That I’m still in love, and so confused
So I’d hide my pain deep inside
Then I’d look you straight in the eye and I’d lie
