One Less Reason - The Lie Chords

One Less Reason - The Lie Chords

[Verse]

    C
And you
              Am
Your love’s defining
          G
A generation
                 F
To settle the score

              C
I once knew trust
                Am
But now I’m surrounded
                 G
By time I’ve wasted
                     F 
And hearts that I stole

                         C
I owe to you a second chance
         G
An explanation
                Am
A promise I’ll keep
                       F     G
For every lie that I told to you


[Chorus]

                        F
You said you would come back for me
                  G
Said you’d find a safe place
              Am
You said that heaven and stars
            Am          G
Would never tear us apart
             F
You find the right words
              G
Even from the wrong ways
       C
You lied


[Verse]

                Am
My lungs were failing
                G
Hands to the sky
               F
Face to the ground
             G               C  
I found that you have no intentions
           Am
You honor nothing
                         G
And how could this be true
                        F
They think so highly of you


[Pre-Chorus]

C
Why won’t you just shut up
C/D (030010)            
I make you fade away
Am                                         G (32003x)
There’s a consequence to every word you say
F                     G
Don’t you know who I am


[Chorus]

                    F
I said I would come back for you
                G
Said I’d find a safe place
              Am
Who knew that heaven and stars 
            Am         G
Had their own prison bars
           F
I find the right words 
              G
Even from the wrong ways
     Am
I lied

  G            F
I never wanted so long 
               G
To turn and to go away
            Am
There was a time when your face
            Am             G
I held much higher than grace
            F
You are the catalyst
                  G
The words I would never say
      F
Goodbye


[Bridge]

          Am                 G
And now I only talk to the dead
      F                      G
Goodbye
          Am                 G
And now I only talk to the dead
      F
Goodbye
      F (stop)
Now I only talk to the dead


[Chorus]

    G                   F
You said you would come back for me
                  G
Said you’d find a safe place
              Am
You said that heaven and stars
            Am          G
Would never tear us apart
             F
You find the right words
              G
Even from the wrong ways
       Am
You lied

  G            F
I never wanted so long 
               G
To turn and to go away
            Am
There was a time when your face
            Am             G
I held much higher than grace
            F
You are the catalyst
                  G
The words I would never say
      Am
Goodbye


[Outro]

              F                   G
Don’t tell me what to hold onto now
              F                   G
Don’t tell me what to hold onto now
F                   G
What to hold onto now
           Am                                 Am
(I’m gonna see it all, gonna see it all, your way, your way)

              F                   G
Don’t tell me what to hold onto now
              F                   G
Don’t tell me what to hold onto now
F                   G
What to hold onto now
           Am                                 Am
(I’m gonna see it all, gonna see it all, your way, your way)
