Lyrics & chords
[Verse 1] [C]Well I'm reading this poem and it's so profound and I like its rhythm and I like its sound it's by a very famous poet no critic can criticise and then I pause a moment and I start to realize [G]he's tellin' [C]lies lies lie[F]s[C][G][C][F][C] on the motel TV. I dig the evangelist he'll tell you all about that and then he tell you all about this he's preachin' up a storm by the sea of Galilee he's mixin' up the truth with something funny I start to see he's [G]tellin' [C]lies [F]lie[C]s l[G]ies[C][F][C] I never had this problem with nobody in the government I guess I always figured they never mean what they meant and GOD help us all not to be so stone surprised when we wake up in the stars with the skies in our eyes if we [G]keep [C]tellin'[G][C][F][C] [G] [C]lies lies lie[F]s [C][G][C]
