Text File
My second tab, it might be wrong, but it sounds pretty good
A A/G# F#m E D intro 2x
Verse is the same descending chord progression: A A/G# F#m E D 4x
Chorus is: A D Bm E, A D E 2x
That's pretty much the whole thing
Intro:
A A/G# F#m E D 2x
Verse:
A A/G#
Disappear from your hometown
F#m E D
Go and find the people that you know
A A/G#
Show them all your good parts
F#m E D
Leave town when bad ones start to show
A A/G#
Go and wed a woman
F#m E D
A pretty girl that you�ve never met
A A/G#
Make sure she knows you love her well
F#m E D
But don�t make any other promises
Chorus:
A D
The weight of lies will bring you down
Bm E
And follow you to every town
A D E
Cause nothing happens here that doesn�t happen there
A D
So when you run make sure you run
Bm E
To something and not away from
A D E
Cause lies don�t need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere
Verse:
I once heard the worse thing
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
But leaving out his doubt
I�m not sure I bought those words
When I was young I knew most everything
These words have never met so much to anyone
As they now mean to me
Chorus:
The weight of lies will bring you down
And follow you to every town
Cause nothing happens here that doesn�t happen there
So when you run make sure you run
To something and not away from
Cause lies don�t need an aeroplane to chase you down
