F                               G                         C
IT SPOKE OF TRUE LOVE AND I THOUGHT IT WAS TALKING ABOUT YOU
C                                                      AM

F                                G               C
CAUSE YOUR COLD HARD LIES SEEM TO BE YOUR ONLY TRUTH

F                         G
AND IM TIRED OF YOUR DISHONESTY
F                       G
AND IM TIRED OF YOUR FALSITY
F                G                        C

F                                  G                        C
BECAUSE THE WORDS FALL OUT OF THEIR MOUTHs LIKE THEY HAVE A CLUE

F                       G

AND IM TIRED OF YOUR FORGERY
F                G                        C
AND IM TIRED BUT NOT AS TIRED AS I AM OF YOU

NOW I SIT AND WAIT CAUSE SHE LEFT ME WITH NOTHING TO DO
F                       G                      C
AND I WATCH THE WORLD GO BY FULL OF LIARS AND FOOLS

AND I TRY TO ENDURE AND I TRY TO GET BACK TO MY GROOVE
F                         G                   C
REMEMBERING WHEN LIFE WAS SIMPLE AND I WAS BULLETPROOF

AND IM TIRED OF YOUR TREACHERY
F                       G
AND IM TIRED OF YOUR CALAMITY
F                       G
AND IM TIRED OF YOUR FALLACY

AND IM TIRED OF YOUR MENDACITY
