I Let Her Lie

D                A
She'd come home, at six a.m.
Bm                    G
tell me she'd been out with friends
              D    A G
and I let her lie
          D    A G
I let her lie

D                     A
And in the glare of the morning sun
Bm                     G
she swore I was the only one
              D    A G
and I let her lie
          D    A G
I let her lie

[Chorus]
A                   Bm                       G         D       A
Cause the truth was too hard to handle, and I couldn't bare to lose
     D      A             Bm                   G   D       G     A
that girl.  We were that small town scandal, but she was my only world

[Verse]
    D                 A
One teary night, she confessed her sins
Bm                           G
but she vowed to never cheat again
              D
and I let her lie
          D     A     G
I let her lie


D                                   A
Though she tried lord, she could not change
      Bm                   G
And I only have myself to blame
                D
Cause I let her lie
          D   D4   D   D4
I let her lie

[Chorus]
A                   Bm                       G      D       A
Cause the truth was too hard to handle, and I couldn't bare to lose
     D      A             Bm                   G   D       G     A
that girl.  We were that small town scandal, but she was my only world


    D             A
The day I left no words were said
        Bm                  G
She was sound asleep on our double bed

             D    A G
and I let her lie
          D    A G
I let her lie
          D    A G
I let her lie
          D
I let her lie
