Key: G
Introduction:
G G/F#
Disappear from your hometown
G G/F#
Show them all your good parts
Em7 C C7M C9 C
Leave town when bad ones start to show
Em7 C C7M C9 C
A pretty girl that you've never met
G G/F#
Make sure she knows you love her well
Em7 C C7M C9 C
But don't make any other promises
G Am
The weight of lies will bring you down
C D
And follow you to every town
G Am D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
G Am
So when you run make sure you run
C D
To something and not away from
G Am D
Cause lies don't need an aero-plane to chase you anywhere
G G/F# Em7 C C7M C9 C
Mmm mm mmmum Mmmmmm ummmmmm mmmmm ooummmmm
G G/F#
I once heard the worse thing
Em7 C C7M C9 C
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
G G/F#
Tell everyone his name, pride, and
Em7 C C7M C9 C
Confidence but leaving out his doubt
G G/F#
I'm not sure I bought those words
Em7 C C7M C9 C
When I was young I knew most everything
G G/F#
These words have never meant as
Em7 C C7M C9 C
Much to anyone as they now mean to me
G Am
The weight of lies will bring you down
C D
And follow you to every town
G Am D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
G Am
So when you run make sure you run
C D
To something and not away from
G Am D
Cause lies don't need an aero-plane to chase you down
G G/F# Em7 C C7M C9 C
Mmm mm mmmum Mmmmmm ummmmmm mmmmm ooummmmm
Chorus 3
G Am
The weight of lies will bring you down
C D
And follow you to every town
G Am D
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
G Am
So when you run make sure you run
C D
To something and not away from
G Am D
Cause lies don't need an aero-plane to chase you down
