[G] [E] [Em]
[E] [Em]
[E] [Em]
[E] [A] [Em]
[Dm] When a million [E] miles [G] from [F#m] nowhere [E] is still too close [F#m] to home.
[Bm] You're with a hundred [F#] [D] thousand people [E] and you still feel [G] alone.
[Em]
[Dm] She was [F#] never in [Em] the circle, [A] a [E] ground would be [F#m] a [B] square.
And the [E] more she [G] seemed to [C#] want it, [E] all the less they seemed to care.
[G] [D] Sold out in a new admission, [E] too late to buy.
[Em] It's never [D] who, [E] it's [A] only why.
[G] She's living [Em] the lie, living the lie.
[E] [Em]
When you're on your way to [A] somewhere, [F#] but the elevator [G] [D] falls.
[E] Do you look for stairs to [F#m] heaven, [E] or wander through [F#] the [C] halls?
[Em] He was [B] only dedicated [E] to the ones who [F#m] make the law.
[Em] But they [Bm] burned with too much fire [E] and his heart was made of straw.
[G] No [D] ticket, no [E] admission, too late to buy.
[Em] It's [D] always [E] he and [A] he knows why.
[G] He's [E] living the lie, living the lie.
How badly you want it, how far will you go?
[Em]
[Am] [E]
[Em] [A] [D] [Am] [G]
[Am] [Em]
[E] [Em]
If [E] [Em]
you're [A] looking [Em] at tomorrow [E] to forget [G] about [Bm] today,
then the past will [Em] be your [D] future [E] and it's there you'll [G] always [C] stay.
[Bm] What about [E] the [B] pictures [E] that smile [D] from magazines?
[D] The ultimate [Em] [A] temptation, [E] I know kings and all are queens.
Such [D] heat and [E] too much [A] pressure, not [E] worth a [Em] try.
No [D] more for [E] them, [A] now it's [G] time.
Ain't no more [Em] living the [E] lie, [Em] living the lie.
Oh why?
[E] [Em] It's the lie.
Lie.
