skylar grey
love the way you lie , interpreted acoustically by carla pearson

Am F
on the first page of our story
C G
the future seemed so bright
Am F
then this thing turned out so evil
C G
i dont know why im still surprised
Am F
even angels have their wicked schemes
C G
and you take that to new extremes
Am F
but youll always be my hero
C G
even though youve lost your mind
( chorus )

Am Am F
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
C G
well thats alright because i like the way it hurts
Am Am F
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
C G
well thats alright because i love the way you lie
G Am
i love the way you lie
F C
i love the way you lie
( the verse simply repeats : Am / F / C / G )
now theres gravel in our voices
glasses shattered from the fight
in this tug of war you always win
even when im right
cause you feed me fables from your head
with violent words and empty threats
and its sick that all these battles
are what keeps me satisfied
( chorus )
Am Am F
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
C G
well thats alright because i like the way it hurts
Am Am F
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
C G
well thats alright because i love the way you lie
G Am
i love the way you lie
F C
i love the way you lie
( bridge )

Am F

C G
i try to run but i dont wanna ever leave
Am F
till the walls are going up
Am G F
in smoke with all our memories

( chorus )
Am Am F
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
C G
well thats alright because i like the way it hurts
Am Am F
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
C G
well thats alright because i love the way you lie
