VERSE 1 G Shaking in the evening sun AmC Counting all the times I've run Am Trying to be honest CG Selfish from a point of view
G How'd it get away from me? AmC End up in the old Q.C. Am Watching out the window CD Crying in my hotel room
PRE-CHORUS GCAmC Ohhhhhhhhh-ohhhhhhhhh-oh G I'll do anything that you want CD Except what you wanted from me
CHORUS Am I'm lying to you cause I'm lost C Lying to you cause I'm lost G Lying to you cause I'm lost
G...[Electric Guitar Solo]...strum Em for a bit...then Am-C-D... (listen to the solo while playing to determine length...or just play it however the hell you want!) =D
VERSE 2 G My mother seems to know it all AmC Sensed it from a distant call Am How's she so objective? CG Tell me how you really feel
G And I was once a maker of my time AmC A celebrated man of mind AmCD Always feels a dream until the real sets in
PRE-CHORUS GCAmC Ohhhhhhhhh-ohhhhhhhhh-oh G I'll be anything that you want CD Except what you want me to be
CHORUS Am I'm lying to you cause I'm lost C Lying to you cause I'm lost G Lying to you cause I'm lost
G...
Am So tell me darling what's it cost CG When I'm lying to you cause I'm lost Em Lying to you cause I'm lost AmCD I'm lost, I'm lost
[Harmonica Outro]...G-C-Am-C x2
AmC I'll be anything... GG I'll be anything...except what you want me to be
