(VERSE)
D Dsus2 Bm A
Tell a lie... that's enough.
G
Give me a story you've made up
D Dsus2
and I'll forgive you.
Bm A
I don't care what you said I said.
G D
It's all in your head. I'll never get you.
A
And you're talking these things through
Bm
like you know what you've been through,
D
but there's not a lot of reason
G A G
in the things that we believe in, so I'll believe in you.
(CHORUS)
D Asus4
I am on the outside of truth and I'm looking in on you
Bm Asus4
but you're staining this town with fighting
G
You're staining this town with fighting
D Asus4
And I'm honest as a photo booth.
I'm just playing off of you,
Bm A
but you're leaving me fast as lightning.
G
You' re leaving me just to spite me.

A
Babe, it must be hard living in a castle.
Bm
Counting Daddy's monies must be a hastle--
D
Proudly you can't abide.
G
I probably should live a lie,
A
but I've been taught that there's something more
Bm
to living life than knowing scores.
D
I'm proud to say I'm honest.
G
Proud to say I'm right.
(CHORUS)

Time out- I don't need this drama,

but I will take you back anyday.

but I will take you on any day
