Capo 3 fret

[Verse 1]
       Em                   C
On the first page of our story
      G               D
the future seemed so bright
       Em                   C
then this thing turned out so evil
               G               D
I don't know why I'm still surprised
       Em                   C
even angels have their wicked schemes
      G               D
and you take that to new extremes
   Em                   C
but you'll always be my hero
      G               D
even though you've lost your mind
 
 
[Chorus]
              Em                   C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
                 G                             D
but that's all right because I like the way it hurts
              Em                   C
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
                 G                             D
but that's all right because I love the way you lie
Em                   C
I love the way you lie
G                        D
Ohhh, I love the way you lie
 
 
[Verse 2]
              Em             C
Now there's gravel in our voices
            G                D
glass is shattered from the fight
           Em                    C
in this tug of war, you'll always win
      G          D
even when I'm right
            Em                       C
'cause you feed me fables from your hand
        G                       D
with violent words and empty threats
          Em                   C
and it's sick that all these battles
           G           D
are what keeps me satisfied
 
 
[Chorus]
              Em                   C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
                 G                             D
but that's all right because I like the way it hurts
              Em                   C
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
                 G                             D
but that's all right because I love the way you lie
Em                   C
I love the way you lie
G                        D
Ohhh, I love the way you lie
 
 
[Bridge]
Em             C
So maybe I'm a masochist
G                D
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave
Em                    C
til the walls are goin' up
G          D
in smoke with all our memories
 
 
 
[Verse 3]
      Em
It's mornin, you wake, a sunray hits your face
        C
Smeared makeup as we lay in a wake of destruction
             G
Hush baby, speak softly, tell me you're awf'lly sorry
                    D
That you pushed me into the coffee table last night so I can push you off me
 
Em                                                     C
Try 'n touch me so I can scream at you not to touch me
                                                   G
Run out the room and I'll follow you like a lost puppy
                                                   D
Baby, without you I'm nothing, I'm so lost, hug me
                                                          Em
Then tell me how ugly I am but that you'll always love me
 
                                                   C
Then after that, shove me, in the aftermath of the
                                                  G
Destructive path we're on, two psychopaths, but we
                                                             D
Know that no matter how many knives we put in each other's backs
                                                            Em
That we'll have each other's backs, 'cause we're that lucky
 
                                                                  C
Together, we move mountains, let's not make mountains out of molehills
                                           G
You hit me twice, yeah, but who's countin'
                                                           D
I may have hit you three times, I'm startin' to lose count
                                                             Em
But together we'll live forever, we found the youth fountain
 
                                                       C
Our love is crazy, we're nuts, but I refuse counselin'
                                                                       G
And this house is too huge, if you move out I'll burn all two thousand
                                                               D
Sqaure feet of it to the ground, ain't shit you can do about it
                                                                 Em
'Cause with you I'm with my fuckin' mind, without you I'm out it
 
 
[Chorus]
              Em                   C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
                 G                             D
but that's all right because I like the way it hurts
              Em                   C
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
                 G                             D
but that's all right because I love the way you lie
Em                   C
I love the way you lie
G                        D
    I love the way you lie
 
 
[Outro]
Em                   C   G  D
I love the way you lie
                        Em
I love the way you lie
