Lie

                 G              
Well, I've been swinging through 
                           Cadd9
these swinging doors for, aww
                   D    G         
Going on probably about 9 years 
              Cadd9  D
now, maybe even 10
      G                          
And I watch old Joe at the end of 
               Cadd9             
the bar with another hot woman on 
      D
his one good arm
         G                         
And they walk out for a while and 
        Cadd9          D  G  
he comes back in smiling, 
Cadd9  D
again


[Verse 2]
     G                          
So I finally had to ask old Joe, 
  Cadd9                   D
"Man, what's your secret to success
G                                
Your power of persuasion over the
Cadd9     D
 opposite sex"
              G                    
And he says, "Son, well, honestly, 
            Cadd9
it's pretty simple
   D                        G     
He said, "I just kinda walk up and
                   Cadd9      D   
 buy her drink and open up my 
      G   Cadd9
mouth and lie"


[Pre-Chorus]
  D              G
I tell her I'm a movie star
Cadd9        D            G
 I just flew into town to buy this 
bar
Cadd9     D      G              
 I'm only here tonight, that's 
    Cadd9  D
right
        G               Cadd9     
I gotta go, yeah, we're filming on
   D              G
 location down in Mexico
Cadd9              D              
 Would you believe that I got the 
G
leading role?
              Cadd9         D     
That's right, honey, I beat out a 
                  G             
lot of folks that you'd probably 
      Cadd9  D
know"

[Chorus]
      G              Cadd9        
Oh, a man has got to do what a 
         D
man's gotta do
G           Cadd9                
Anything it takes to make her 
          D
think you're cool
            Cadd9               D
Ah, you got nothing to lose, so go 
on and try
     G                  Cadd9  
Just walk right up and smile and 
                       D  D7
look her dead in the eye
    G  Cadd9  D
And lie
             G  Cadd9  D
That's right lie


[Verse 3]
     G                       
So I tried and tried a couple 
                 Cadd9             
weekends and it was like strike 1, 
D         G                Cadd9  D
strike 2, strike out again
      G
But I narrowed it down, and I 
scratched it out
      Cadd9                      
And I came up with something that 
    D              G
without a doubt I knew
                     Cadd9         
I was gonna make old Joe proud and 
     D
I go up and I'd say


[Pre-Chorus]
G  Cadd9          D             
Hi Honey, whatcha doing for the rest
G
 of your life
Cadd9      D              G
 I've been waiting such a long, long
 time
             Cadd9
And you know what honey?
        D         G          
Meeting you here, man, it just 
                    Cadd9  D
really feels like fate
   G    Cadd9          D          
Oh I, I bet you didn't see me as a 
 G
marrying type
Cadd9           D                
 Let's take it slow I don't just 
G                     Cadd9
want one night, oh no darling
                      D            
If you're looking for that you 
          G
might as well look somewhere else
              Cadd9                
Well, because I'm just not that 
     D
kind of guy
    G
And kids, oh I love kids
Cadd9     D           G
 Dogs, in-laws, and a piece of land
Cadd9  D             G
 Dirty diapers in my mini van
   Cadd9      D          G  Cadd9  D
Aw man, I can hardly wait


[Chorus]
      G              Cadd9        
Oh, a man has got to do what a 
         D
man's gotta do
G           Cadd9                
Anything it takes to make her 
          D
think you're cool
            Cadd9               D
Ah, you got nothing to lose, so go 
on and try
     G                  Cadd9  
Just walk right up and smile and 
                       D  D7
look her dead in the eye


[Otro]
    G
And lie
Cadd9          D         G
 That's right, you gotta lie
Cadd9     D          G
 Sometimes you gotta lie
