As recorded by Turnpike Trobadours (From the 2025 Album THE PRICE OF ADMISSION) [Verse 1]
                                G
Feels like the world belongs to you and me

G
Finally free now, baby

        Am   C    Am C G
Did our past just disappear?

G
More than a little bit of history

G
In this big old city

             Am  C  Am C    G
Well, are we out of danger, dear?
[Chorus]
    D
I'm scared that you're lying

    C                          G
But it's just the start of the evening

    D                 C                 G
And people can start again and be brand new
[Verse 2]
                         G
I'm tired of living in a tragedy

G
I'm tired of feeling empty

         Am   C  Am C G
I didn't have an exit plan

G
There really isn't any strategy

G
Of the wreck behind me

         Am    C   Am  C  G
Now I've shown up, hat in hand
[Chorus]
    D
I'm scared that you're lying

    C                          G
But it's just the start of the evening

    D                 C                 G
And people can start again and be brand new

D
I'm gonna try it

    C                  G
Who knows? I may start believing

           Am   C   Am     G
That every word you say is true
[Instrumental Break] G Am C Am C G [Verse 3]
                            G
Something doesn't quite add up to me

G
More than something, really

            Am   C  Am C G
And I can't keep it to myself

G
I got the champagne and the flattery

G
To keep me busy

        Am    C   Am C    G
Raise a glass now to your health
[Out-Chorus]
    D
I'm scared that you're lying

    C                          G
And it's just the start of the evening

    D                 C                 G
And people can start again and be brand new

D
I'm gonna try it

    C                  G
Who knows? I may start believing

      Am   C   Am     G
Every word you say is true

            Am   C   Am     G
Well, every word you say is true
