White Lie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I[C][Am][Em]
[C][Am][C]
[Em][C]
[Am]was [C]16 y[Em]ears old
[C]
When the sadness took [Am]hold
And it never went [C]again[Em]

[Verse 2]
Still feel it some[C]times
When the [Am]weather's unkind
And my lover's lips [C]are [Dm]thin

[Verse 3]
But then I get [C]out,
tell myself the white [Em]lie
That blind faith would make
[D]everything [Dm]alright
That I'd walk on wa[C]ter like
when I was [Em]younger

[Verse 4]
[D]I'm [Em]a failure,[C]
I'm a dis[Am]aster
And I don't want to be
any[C]thing [Em]else
I'm [C]a loner, I'm [Am]a loser
And I don't want to be any[C]thing else
[Em]

[Verse 5]
[C]It's in Lon[Am]don, mos[C]tly
[Am]With the swarms around me
And it comes [C]in waves again
Yeah, I'll [Am]do what I'm
[C]told
Let the future [Am]unfold
As I'm thrown down
the rab[C]bit [Dm]hole

[Verse 6]
But then I get [C]out,
tell myself the white [Em]lie
That blind faith would make
[D]everything al[Dm]right
That I'd walk on wa[C]ter
like when I was young[Em]er

[Verse 7]
[D]I'm [Em]a failure,[C]
I'm a dis[Am]aster
And I don't want to be
any[C]thing [Em]else
I'm [C]a loner, I'm a loser
[Am]And I don't want to be anythin[C]g else

[Verse 8]
Do [C]you [Am]feel [C]the [F]same[G]
[C]to [Am]me?[C][Am]
Do you [F]feel [G]the same to me?
[Am]

[Verse 9]
[Em]
'Cause I don't want to be like [C]you
I don't want to be like [Am]you
I don't want to be any[C]thing [Em]else
I don't want to be like [C]you
I don't want to be like [Am]you
I don't want to be anything [C]else
[G]I'm a failure,

[Verse 10]
I'm [G]a disaster
And I don't want to be [G]anything else
