INTRO (distorted):
VERSE 1 (clean electric):
Tired of seven hours a day (yeah)
Weekends that go too fast
I set my sights for boardwalk streets
and a sunset that will last
I grabbed my coat and told my friends
that I was going away
just a few long miles and a few good smiles
and I'll have my love today
CHORUS (distorted):
(sung over tab)
Ooh, lie, lie, lie
Why do I look so hard?
Ooh, lie, lie, lie
Must I be so far?
VERSE 2 (clean electric):
Intent on a life that is what I dream
I set out to be free
Turned my cheek on my beliefs
with whatever in front of me
Sick of words like "trust" and "hope"
and "hey man, you got to be good"
But if I want I'll sit and stare all day
at the clouds like I wished I could
BRIDGE (distorted):
And for just tonight
A place to rest my head
My eyes were heavy
But I found no peace in this bed
With the silence around
I felt so alone again
Well, I closed my eyes with lifted hands
And I fell to my knees instead
SOLO (distorted):
> = hammer on
< = pull off
