Subject: CRD: Very First Lie by Material Issue

I just figured this one out.  I'm not sure about the solo, but it's 
close.  Anyway, enjoy!

Very First Lie by Material Issue
Album: International Pop Overthrow
Transcribed by Brad Heim 

Note: In general, the C and Am chords are played normal first, then 
changed by bringing the pinky up to the fourth fret, then playing
the normal chord, then releasing the pointer finger.I don't know the 
names of these chords, but if you listen to the album, you'll see what I 
mean.
 
Intro: C  Am C Am

C
I'd like to wake up with you early in the morning
Am
Or stay up late just playing records on your phonograph
C
I'd like to get to know your mother and your father
Am
Maybe just once pretend to be somebody's bbetter half
Dm		     G	
And I would like to tell the very first lie

C Am C Am

C
I'd like to ignore all my friends and spend my time with you
