AmFCG
On the first page of our story, the future seemed so bright
AmFCG
then this thing turned out so evil, I don't know why I'm still surprised
AmFCadd9G
even angels have their wicked schemes and you take that to new extremes
AmFCG
but you'll always be my hero, even though you lost your mind
[Chorus]
AmFC
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, but that's alright
GAmF
because I like the way it hurts. Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
Cadd9G
but that's alright because I love the way you lie...love the way you
AmFCG
lie...ooh, love the way you lie!
[Verse 2]
AmFCG
Now there's gravel in our voices, glasses shattered from the fight
AmFCG
In this tug of war, you'll always win, even, when I'm right
AmFCadd9G
Coz you feed me fables from your hands. the violent words and empty threats,
AmFCG
and it's sick that all these battles are what keeps me satisfied.
[Chorus]
AmFC
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, but that's alright
GAmF
because I like the way it hurts. Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
Cadd9G
but that's alright because I love the way you lie....love the way you
AmFCG
lie...ooh, love the way you lie!

So maybe I'm a masochist, I try to run, but I don't wanna ever leave!
Em7AmEmEm7G
Till the walls are goin' up in smoke with all our memories...
Am
It's mornin', you wake, a sunray hits your face
F
Smeared makeup as we lay in the wake of destruction
C
Hush baby, speak softly, tell me you're awfully sorry
G
That you pushed me into the coffee table last night
So I can push you off me
Am
Try and touch me so I can scream at you not to touch me
F
Run out the room and I'll follow you like a lost puppy
C
Baby, without you I'm nothing, I'm so lost, hug me
G
Then tell me how ugly I am, but that you'll always love me
Am
Then after that, shove me, in the aftermath of the
F
Destructive path that we're on, two psychopaths but we
C
Know that no matter how many knives we put in each other's backs
G
That we'll have each other's backs, 'cause we're that lucky
Am
Together, we move mountains, let's not make mountains out of molehills
F
You hit me twice, yeah, but who's countin'
C
I may have hit you three times, I'm startin' to lose count
G
But together, we'll live forever, we found the youth fountain
Am
Our love is crazy, we're nuts, but I refuse counsellin'
F
This house is too huge, if you move out I'll burn all two thousand
C
Square feet of it to the ground, ain't shit you can do about it
G
'Cause with you I'm in my fuckin' mind, without you I'm out it
[Chorus]
AmFC
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, but that's alright
GAmF
because I like the way it hurts. Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
Cadd9G
but that's alright because I love the way you lie....love the way you
AmFC
lie...ooh, love the way you lie!
GAmF
Oh, I love the way you lie
Cadd9GAmF
I love the way you lie
Cadd9G
I love the way you lie
