Well I was sittin’ on a stool at the corner bar, with the juke box soft and low
A G D
A young girl played some sad old country songs
G A D G
Well they were all the tunes that I loved best, she must have seen me smile
D A D
‘Cause she walked on over and asked if I would dance
G A D G
Well I can kind of dance if the song’s real slow, she smiled and said that’s fine
A G D
She danced real close and spoke about her life
G A D G
And then she talked about her broken heart and it sounded like those songs
D A D
While old Hank Williams moaned the blues she sighed
D A G D A
Hide the truth if you can, don’t you ever tip your hand
G D
Don’t be searchin’ for some castle in the sky
G D A G
Show some love if you can, it’s such a beautiful lie
D G A D G
With the music slow and the lights down low we danced those quarters out
A G D
Then we grabbed some chairs and ordered another round
G A D G
Then she asked me if I’d take her home and I almost spilled my beer
D A D
She took my hand and whispered in my ear
D A G D A
Hide the truth if you can, make me be more than I am
G D
Lead me on, act just like you care
G D A G
Show some love if you can, it’s such a beautiful lie
G D A G D
Show some love if you can, it’s such a beautiful, beautiful lie
