[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Here you come draggin' in
Three a.m. again
Grinnin' that silly grin

[Verse 2]
Smellin' just like sin
[C]Holdin' up that alibi that's
tissue paper thin
[D]Diggin' down deeper and deeper
In that hole you're already in

[Verse 3]
If you can't [G]lie no [C]better
If you can't [G]lie no [C]better
If you can't [D]lie [C]no bet
[G]ter than [Dm]that
You might as [D]well tell the [G]truth
[C][G]

[Verse 4]
[G]I know you been foolin' around
With some fool from way 'cross town
You're tearin' our good thing down
Makin' me out your clown
[C]Lookin' for excuses that
you know can't be found
[D]

[Verse 5]
If you can't [G]lie no [C]better
If you can't [G]lie no [C]better
If you can't [D]lie [C]no better [G]than [D]that
[Dm]You might as well tell
[G]the truth

[Interlude 1]

[C]And you could be more discreet
With your love letters
And [D]honey, I smell some other man
All over your Cashmere sweater
[Em]
