"Sexual Powertrip (One Big Lie) Bla Bla" by Blue October From the album "History for Sale" Notes: This song rocks. The main riff is F E D C, power-chord style. If you play it with open chords, I think the D is actually a Dm, but the power chords sound more authentic, particularly on an electric. The verses are just a sustained C.

C
I'm sorry for the way I treated you

I'm stuck in my ways to just run In the opposite way when things get comfortable I'll keep on licking 'til your flavor is gone (Chorus)

         F       E      D      C
But it's getting more impossible

   F               E           D            C
To keep a straight face and be trusted with I love you (one big lie)

            Am
Yes, I love yoouuuu (bla bla...)

(Verse 2)

C
So don't trust my words when I'm in the bed with you

I'll bring the message, but the message gets lost Yeah you opened your legs and maybe I promised you Well you didn't notice that my ankles were crossed (Chorus)

         F       E      D      C
But it's getting more impossible

   F               E           D            C
To keep a straight face and be trusted with I love you (one big lie)

                       G
Can you show me how to treat someone?

I don't recall ever learning how

                      Am
'Cause I keep fucking up

                    C
Yeah 'cause I keep fucking up

(pause)

                  C
I keep fucking up

(Play riff four times and end on a sustained C)
