Compulsive Liar

C


[Verse 1]
C
I've got one fatal flaw:
C
I'm a compulsive liar
F
If I don't love you,
       C
I will tell you anything
C
And even if I love you
C
I'll always be conniving
F                    C
I'll always be negotiating with the 
truth

[Verse 2]
G
And I can trace the habit
F         Fm7
To when I was eleven
Am            Em
And I thought boys were pretty
      F                G
And I couldn't tell no one


[Verse 3]
C
It opens at a young age:
C
That all-protective closet
F
Just lock the door
           G
And settle in among the raincoats
C
The longer you stay in there
    C
The more you'll get distorted
F                           C
The more contorted all your lies 
will have to be


[Verse 4]
G
Don't wait a moment longer:
F            Fm7
Stand up and turn the doorknob
Am            Em
And I'll tell you my secret
   F        G          C
If you will tell me yours
