(verse)
E5 G5 D5 E5(VII) C5
I’ve got no politics, no influential friend or two
E5 G5 D5 E5(VII) C5
I’ve got ideas, but it’s nothing I picked up at school
E5 G5 D5 E5(VII) C5
I might be running, but I’m never running back to you
(bridge — riff 1)
And here’s a letter from the real world, I don’t expect you’ll reply
And anything you’re gonna tell me, it’s just another lie
(verse)
I had to wait so long that weeks and months that passed me by
You’ve got no power and my situation don’t apply
You ask me how I am, I lie and say I’m doing fine
(bridge)
And with your sugar-sweetened alibi, there was a truth I never knew
And all the attitude you gave me, it’s coming back to you
(chorus)
G D5 E5(VII) C5
String of lies, it’s always compromise with you
G D5 E5(VII) C5
String of lies, you know there’s nothing better to do
G D5 E5(VII) C5
String of lies, it’s been a string of lies with you
(bridge)
And here’s a letter from the real world, I don’t expect you’ll reply
And anything you’re gonna tell me, it’s just another lie
(solo)
E5-G5-D5-E5(VII)-C5
(4 times)
(chorus)
String of lies, we always compromise for you
String of lies, you know there’s nothing better to do
String of lies, it’s been a string of lies with you
String of lies, we always compromise for you
