Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G]
[G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I [G]went to a copper to fix a [C]hole in my shoe
He took one [D]look at my face and said
[C]"I can fix that hole [G]in [C]you."[G]
[G]I beg your pardon, I'm not loo[C]king for a cure
I've seen e[D]nough from my friends
In the [C]depths of the Godsick [G]blues[C][G]

[Chorus 1]
You know I [Am]am a liar[G]
You know I [Am]am a liar[G]
Nobody [Am]helps a [C]li- [G]ar[C][G]

[Verse 2]
'Cause [G]I've been down to Dixie
and dropped [C]acid on my tongue
Dripped up[D]on the land
'til e[C]nough was e[G]nough[C][G]
I was a [G]little bit lighter and
ad[C]venture on my sleeve
I was a [D]little drunk and
[C]looking for compa[G]ny[C][G]
So I [G]found myself a sweetheart
with the [C]softest of hands
We were [D]un lucky in love,
but [C]I'd do it all a[G]gain[C][G]

[Chorus 2]
We built our[Am]selves a [G]fire
We built our[Am]selves a [G]fire
You know I [Am]am a li[C]- ar[G][C][G]
You know I [Am]am a li[C]- ar[G][C][G]
And you [C]don't know [G]what I've [Am]done[G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
And [G]by the rollin' river
Is ex[C]actly where I was
There was [D]no snake or cure
for [C]un lucky in [G]love[C][G]
To be [G]lonely is a habit
Like smok[C]ing or taking drugs
And [D]I've quit them both
But [C]man, was it [G]rough[C][G]

[Chorus 3]
And now I [Am]am t[G]ired
It just [Am]made me [G]tired
Let's build our[Am]selves a [C]fire[G][C][G]
Let's build our[Am]selves a [C]fire[G][C][G]
