Am(4) C Dm F
You told me words that will never expire
Am C Dm F
Watch what my body says when you’re caught being a liar
Am C Dm
I’ll fire words as staccato sounds
F Am
Grinding my teeth, shoulders tightly wound
C Dm F
You told me words that I had once admired
Am C
[Verse 2]
Am C Dm F
Once I was sure that our love wouldn’t change
Am C Dm F
Oh how I’ve been so wrong, you’re the only to blame
Am C Dm
You gently weep as my forehead frowns
F Am
Absent words keep and a heartache pounds
C Dm F
You told me words that I no longer require
F
[Chorus]
Am(4) C Dm F
But your heart was the furthest thing away
Am C Dm F
When you told how you’d chosen to behave
C Dm F Dm
And the false words you told me made haste
Am C Dm F
All the tales and secret ways that kept their pace
[Verse 3]
Am C Dm F
Talking of faults, shifting blame from yourself
Am C Dm F
Caught in a mess of words when you try lying as help
Am C Dm
Try to be stable while my anger swells
F Am
You’ve been unfaithful but my heart won’t dwell
C Dm F
You told me words that will never expire
G F
