EmGEmG
I will not lie, I will not lie. I will not lie, I will not lie for you.
[Verse 1]
EmCGC
Every time I see you fooling around on him,
EmAD
I can't help, but remember, that he calls me his friend.
[Chorus]
EmCGBm
It's only right for me to tell you when it's the wrong thing to do.
EmA
It's only right that you should know
DEmG
If he comes to me, I will not lie for you, no, I won't lie for you.
[Verse 2]
EmCGC
It's hard enough to see him stumbling blind,
EmAD
I refuse to see him lose you and me at the same time.
[Chorus]
EmCGBm
It's only right for me to tell you when it's the wrong thing to do.
EmA
It's only right that you should know
DEmG
If he comes to me, I will not lie for you, no, I won't lie for you.
[Bridge]
DAm7DAm7
To come here as your friend and have you come on like my lover,
DAm7DB7
like to bring things to an end between myself and my brother.
EmCG
If it was any other man I would not interfere
EmAD
But if you come on to me again, I don't see how to stand clear.
[Chorus]
EmCGBm
It's only right for me to tell you when it's the wrong thing to do.
EmA
It's only right that you should know
DEmG
If he comes to me, I will not lie for you, no, I won't lie for you.

[Chorus]

It's only right for me to tell you when it's the wrong thing to do.
EmA
It's only right that you should know

If he comes to me, I will not lie for you, no, I won't lie for you.
[Outro]
EmG
No, I won't lie for you, little girl, I won't lie for you.
EmG
No, I won't lie to him for you, I will not lie for you.
