Lie About You

          A                        
Could you please just put the 
  E
coffee down?
              C#m            
It's 2 in the morning and I'm 
         B
already ready for bed
A                   E
Went to turn the TV down
              C#m                  
Hand me the remote, but both of the
 B
 batteries were dead
         A      E
Couldn't make decisions,
                 C#m     B
Thought I needed your permission
   A                          E
So I don't drink black coffee now
                  C#m            
Don't know how it didn't taste so 
             B
bitter back then


[Pre-Chorus]
            A                      
And if your friends all see it, 
  E
your boyfriend sees it
     C#m                       B
Even your momma sees it, maybe you 
should believe it
            A            E    
And I ain't got no reason to be 
                C#m  B
mistreated at all


[Chorus]
   A                   E
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie?
C#m        B
 Lie about you
A                   E
Why do I, why do I, why do I try?
C#m             B
 Pretending I'm cool, when I'm not
       A                     E
'Cause everyone told me what I 
couldn't see
  C#m               B
I tried to deny you were hurting me
A                      E
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
C#m        B
 Lie about you?

[Verse 2]
          A                      
Should've seen that all the flags 
      E
were red
              C#m             
But in your defense I went and 
              B
painted them white
      A                   E
For a minute never second guessed
                C#m              
When you put me down so you could 
              B
pull up your pride
                A             
Guess I learned that I'm worth 
 E
something
              C#m      B
Bet you never saw that coming
      A                         E
And I hope someday you'll understand
                   C#m           
Your problems with me were always 
            B
your own design


[Pre-Chorus]
            A                      
And if your friends all see it, 
  E
your boyfriend sees it
     C#m                       B
Even your momma sees it, maybe you 
should believe it
            A            E    
And I ain't got no reason to be 
                C#m  B
mistreated at all, at all


[Chorus]
   A                   E
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie?
C#m        B
 Lie about you
A                   E
Why do I, why do I, why do I try?
C#m             B
 Pretending I'm cool, when I'm not
       A                     E
'Cause everyone told me what I 
couldn't see
  C#m               B
I tried to deny you were hurting me
A                      E
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
C#m        B
 Lie about you?


[Bridge]
           A
I know I'm dumb to think you regret 
a thing
E
But I wish you did
           F#m                     
I tried to be your puppet, wear 
         C#m
your golden ring, couldn't make it 
fit
    C#m/B     A
And I played along til I cut the 
strings
           E
I had to relearn almost everything
                F#m                
Bout who I was, who I wanna be, who
           C#m
 you never could


[Chorus]
   A                   E
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie?
C#m        B
 Lie about you
A                   E
Why do I, why do I, why do I try?
C#m             B
 Pretending I'm cool, when I'm not
       A                     E
'Cause everyone told me what I 
couldn't see
  C#m               B
I tried to deny you were hurting me
A                      E
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
C#m        B
 Lie about you?
