[Verse 1]
A D
I tell people, you just going through changes
A D
And that you’re acquainted both with night and day
A D
That your money’s good and you’re just being courageous
A D
On them burning bridges knowing your feet are made of clay
A D
Well I say you won’t be destroyed by your inventions
A D
That you brought it all under captivity
A D
And that you really do have all the best intentions
A G D A
But you’re making a liar out of me

[Verse 2]
A D
Well I say that you’re just young and self-tormented
A D
But that deep down you understand
A D
The hopes and fears and dreams of the discontented
A D
That threaten now to overtake your promised land
A D
Well I say you’d not sow discord among brothers
A D
Nor drain a man of his integrity
A D
That you remember the cries of orphans and their mothers
A G D A
But you’re making a liar out of me
A G A
But you’re making a liar out of me

[Verse 3]
A D
Well I say that, that ain’t flesh and blood you’re drinking
A D
In the wounded empire of your fool’s paradise
A D
With a light above your head forever blinking
A D
Turning virgins into merchandise
A D
That you must have been beautiful when you were living
A D
You remind me of some old-time used-to-be
A D
I say you can be trusted with the power you been given
A G A
But you’re making a liar out of me

[Verse 4]
A D
So many things so hard to say as you stumble
A D
To take refuge in your offices of shame
A D
As the earth beneath my feet begins to rumble
A D
And your young men die for nothin’, not even fame
A D
I say that someday you’ll begin to trust us
A D
And that your conscience has not been slain by conformity
A D
That you stand up unafraid to believe in justice
A G D A
But you’re making a liar out of me
A G D A
You’re making a liar out of me

[Verse 5]
A D
Well I can hear the sound of distant thunder
A D
From an open window at the end of every hall
A D
Now that you’re gone I got to wonder
A D
If you ever were here at all
A D
I say you never sacrificed my children
A D
To some false god of infidelity
A D
And that it’s not the Tower of Babel that you’re building
A G D A
But you’re making a liar out of me
A G D A
You’re making a liar out of me
A G D A
Now, you’re making a liar out of me
