Em C G D
[Verse]
Em C
On the first page of our story
G D
The future seemed so bright
Em C
Then the saint turned out so e-vil
G D
I don't know why I'm still surprised
Em C
Even angels have their wicked schemes
G D
And you take that to new extremes
Em C
But you'll always be my hero
G D
Even though you've lost your mind
[Chorus]
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
G D
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
G D
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
Em C
I love the way you lie
G D
I love the way you lie
[Verse]
Em C
Now there's gravel in our voices
G D
Glasses shattered from the fight
Em C
In this tug of war you always win
G D
Even when I'm right
Em C
Cause you feed me fables from your head
G D
With violent words and empty threats
Em C
And it's sick that all these battles
G D
are what keeps me satisfied
[Chorus]
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
G D
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
G D
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
Em C
I love the way you lie
G D
I love the way you lie
[Bridge]
Em C
So maybe I'm a masochist
G D
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave
Em C
Till the walls are going up
G D G C G D
In smoke with all our memories
[Chorus]
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
G D
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
G D
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
Em C
I love the way you lie
G D
I love the way you lie
