Oh no, don't, say those same idle lies;

I-I'll wipe them no more, oh,   oh,

C                 B7         Em             G
 I didn't want to have to be cruel, but the truth must be said,

Oh, it was not so long a-go, since you wandered out of here.

      Em            D          Am          C/G
To be-come a silver model of a city on the air.

         Am                 C/G                Am           C/G
So don't choke me with your lies, because this man has open eyes;

          G    G/F#
And I can see...

G/F    E7         Am       B7     Em  Baug Gsus2/A
 I can see, I can tell, oh oh, oh oh, mmm,  mmm.
