Capo 3rd fret (or 2nd, depending on your vocal range)


Standard tuning.


     E5                     C5
On the first page of our story
     G5                D5
The future seemed so bright
      E5                      C5
Then this thing turned out so evil
   G5                         D5
I don't know why I'm still surprised
     E5                 C5
Even angels have their wicked schemes
       G5                   D5
And you take that to new extremes
            E5           C5
But you'll always be my hero
      G5                       D5
Even though you've lost your mind

(CHORUS)

            E5                      C5
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
            G5                               D5
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
            E5                      C5
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
   G5                                        D5
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
     E5             G5
I love the way you lie
     C5              D5
I love the way you lie


(Bridge)

E5                 C5
So maybe I'm a masochist
G5                D5
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave
 E5                 C5
Till the walls are going up
G5                    D5   C5  G5
In smoke with all our memories



(CHORUS)

            E5                      C5
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
            G5                               D5
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
            E5                      C5
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
   G5                                        D5
Well that's alright because I love the way you lie
     E5             G5
I love the way you lie

   (I think this sounds better a capella)

I love the way you lie
