[Verse 1]
C F
Tired of seven hours a day
G F
And weekends that go too fast
C F
I set my sights on boardwalk streets
G C
And a sunset that will last
C F
I grabbed my coat and told my friends
G F
That I was going away
C F
Just a few long miles and a few good smiles
G C
And I'll have my love today
[Chorus]
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Why must I look so hard?
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Must I be so far?
[Verse 2]
C F
Intent on a life that is what I dream
G F
I set out to be free
C F
Turned my check on my beliefs
G C
With whatever in front of me
C F
Sick of words like 'trust' and 'hope'
G C
And 'hey man, you got to be good'
C F
But if I want I'll sit and stare
G C
All day at the clouds like I wished I could
[Chorus]
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Why must I look so hard?
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Must I be so far?
[Bridge]
Am
And just for tonight
C Am
A place to rest my head
C
My syes were heavy
Am
But I found no peace in this bed
C
With the silence around
F
I felt so alone again
G
Well, I closed my eyes with lifted hands
And I fell to my knees instead
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
C F
Tired of tears and a broken heart
G F
And love that fades too fast
C F
I set my sights for golden streets
G C
And a joy that will ever last...
[Out-Chorus]
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Why must I look so hard?
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Must I be so far?
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C
Why do I look so hard?
F G C Am
Ohh, lie, lie, lie
F G C F G
Lord You've never been far
F G Am
You've never ever been far
