Chords

[Intro] C C C C [Verse 1]
     C
It's midnight and I give up
I'm tired of lying for you
Am                                                 C
   I will not hold your hands and pretend I'm your lover

C
 You must admit the turnouts
Have all been less than grand
Am                                       C
   There's no more police escorts or the high school welcome bands
[Chorus]
F              C
  I'm no lie detector

F                  C          G                Am
  He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows

     F         C                   Am       F
What should be known to all the au- thors
C C [Verse 2]
          C
Now they've put away the kissing booths
The chapstick gossip's truth
Am                                              C
   The only donkey they'll be riding boy is the one wearing your shoes

          C
Now they've heard it through the walls
Of telephone operators
Am                                    C
   And I found out from someone else, he said he was your brother
[Chorus]
F              C
  I'm no lie detector

F                  C          G                Am
  He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows

     F         C                   Am       F
What should be known to all the au- thors
C C [Bridge]
F                            C             G
I don't care if I'm the only one who's not payin'

F                                C            G
  'Cause honey I am done staying up all night waitin'
C C C C [Verse 3]
         C
Now we're all tying the ribbons of worry to your tree

Am                                                 C
    Your passing will make the headlines but sadly no one will read

            C
Just how the town's hopeless romantic, had his heart on his sleeve

Am                               C
   Died alone in a car park of a local library
[Chorus]
F              C
  I'm no lie detector

F                  C          G                Am
  He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows

     F         C                   Am
What should be known to all the au- thors

F              C
  I'm no lie detector

F                  C          G                Am
  He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows

     F         C                   Am
What should be known to all the au- thors
