THAT'S A LIE (Kim Richey & Tim Krekel)
--------------------------------------
[Capo 3; each chord is two beats, or half a measure.]
[Em(9) is 024000 in this song; C(9) is x32030 in the intro, and x32033
in the chorus. In the second measure of the intro, the C(9) has an F#
on the high E string; it's either x32032 or x30032.]
[It's pretty easy to play those low quarter notes that come right before
most of the Em chords: just bend the 2nd fret on the low E string from
an F# up to a G and back.]

intro

I let the porch light burn all night   
Till the early morning light  
But you never did come by   
And now you're calling me 
Just to say you need 
A little room to breathe 
G C(9) D D G C(9) G D
That's a lie you tell yourself so I can't touch you
G C(9) D D G C(9) G D
That's a lie to shut me out, but it's just not true
Can't you see, you're not fooling me a bit 
G C(9) D D G C(9) G D
Yeah, you can't try to tell me you don't care, I know
That's a lie           
Well, you never will be free
If you let her memory
Get all tangled up with me
I'm sorry for your pain
But I won't take the blame
All women aren't the same
That's a lie you tell yourself so I can't touch you
That's a lie to shut me out, but it's just not true
Can't you see, you're not fooling me a bit
Yeah, you can't try to tell me you don't care, I know
That's a lie
You say you like to be alone   
You do just fine all on your own   
That's a lie you tell yourself so I can't touch you
That's a lie to shut me out, but it's just not true
Can't you see, you're not fooling me a bit
Yeah, you can't try to tell me you don't care, I know
That's a lie, that's a lie
That's a lie
