Lie, Lie, Lie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
'Lie, Lie, Lie' hearkens back to those great songs
of the '70's... or atleast it's supposed to.
The track begins with a horrendous buzz and background
noise. All just part of the special sound.
We brought in Dave Sprinkle (yes,
Aaron and Jesse's dad) as well as our youth pastor,
Craig Finley, to sing background vocals.
[G]Lastly, we added a good 'clap' track
to round it out.
Intended to tell a story, it starts with a typical
person who is tired of

[Verse 2]
[C]the day-to-day grind grind
grind and sets
out to find something more fulfilling.
[D]In the process they leave behind all the
[G]things they've
grown up believing. [D]The bridge
is the turn [Em]around point
where our sub[D]ject ends
up in a [C]hotel room,
alone and confused,
and finally [D]turns to the Lord.
The last verse completes [G]the turn-around,
focusing focusing not just
on the quick fix but setting sights
on Christ in all things.

[Verse 3]
tired of seven [C]hours a day
and [D]weekends that go too [C]fast

[Verse 4]
i set [G]my sights on [C]boardwalk streets
and [D]a sunset that will [G]last

[Verse 5]
[G]i grabbed my coat and told [C]my friends
that i [D]was going [C]away

[Verse 6]
just [G]a few long miles and
a few [C]good smiles
and [D]i'll have my love today
[G][C][D][G]

[Verse 7]
ohh, lie, [D]lie, lie
[Em]why [D]must[C] i look so h[D]ar[G]d?[C][D][G]
[D]ohh, lie, [Em]lie, lie
[C]must i be [D]so [G]far?

[Verse 8]
[G]intent on a life that is [C]what i dream
i [D]set out to be [C]free

[Verse 9]
[G]turned my check on [C]my beliefs
with [D]whatever in front of [G]me

[Verse 10]
[G]sick of words [C]like 'trust' and 'hope'
and [D]'hey man, you got to be [C]good'

[Verse 11]
but [G]if i want i'll [C]sit and stare
all [D]day at the clouds like [G]i wished i could

[Verse 12]
[C]and [D]jus[G]t for tonigh[D]t
[Em]a pl[D]ace to[C] res[D]t my[G][C][D][G][D]
head

[Verse 13]
[C]my [D]sye[G]s were[Em]
[G]hea[Em]vy
but [G]i found no peace in t[Em]his bed

[Verse 14]
with [Em]the silence [G]around
i felt so alone [C]again

[Verse 15]
well, [C]i closed my eyes with lif[D]ted hands

[Interlude 1]
and i fell to my knees instead
[C][D][G][Em]
[D][C][D][G][C][D][G]
[D][Em][D][C][D][G]

[Verse 16]
[G]tired of tears and a [C]broken heart
and [D]love that fades too [C]fast

[Verse 17]
i set [G]my sights for [C]golden streets
and [D]a joy that will ever last...
