Em                     C
On the first page of our story
     G                D
The future seemed so bright
      Em                      C
Then this thing turned out so evil
   G                         D
I don't know why I'm still surprised
     Em                 C
Even angels have their wicked schemes
       G                   D
And you take that to new extremes
            Em           C
But you'll always be my hero
      G                       D
Even though you've lost your mind

[Chorus]
            Em                      C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
            G                               D
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
            Em                      C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
   G                                        D
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
     Em             G
I love the way you lie
     C              D
I love the way you lie

[Second Verse]
         Em            C
Now there's gravel in our voices
         G                  D 
Glass is shattered from the fight
        Em                C 
In this tug of war you'll always win 
  G            D   
Even when I'm right
          Em             C     
Cause you feed me fables from your hands
     G                 D
With violent words and empty threats
         Em                   C                     
And it's sick that all these battles
          G            D 
Are what keeps me satisfied.

[Chorus]
            Em                      C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
            G                               D
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
            Em                      C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
   G                                        D
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
     Em             G
I love the way you lie

[Bridge]
C                  D
So maybe I'm a masochist
  Em             D
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave
 C                 D
Till the walls are going up
Em                 D       Em (hold)
In smoke with all our memories

[Chorus]
            Em                      C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
            G                               D
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
            Em                      C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
   G                                        D
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
     Em             G
I love the way you lie
