Capo 4th fret
Original Key: G#m
[Chorus]
Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G C
Been a lover, been a cheat
D Em G C
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
D Em G C
Well little one, I don't want to admit to something
D Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
G C
Truth in my lies right now are falling like the rain
D
So let the river run
[Verse 1]
Em G
He's coming home with his neck scratched to catch flack
C D
Sweat jackets and dress slacks, mismatch
Em
On his breast jackets is sex addict
G C Am D
And she just wants to exact revenge and get back
Em G
It's a chess match, she's on his back like a jetpack
C
She's kept track of all his internet chats
D Em
And guess who just so happens to be moving on to the next?
G C Am D
Actually, just shit on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks
Em G
'Cause she loves danger, psychopath
C D
And you don't fuck with no man's girl, even I know that
Em G C
But she's devised some plan to stab him in the back
Am D
Knife in hand, says the relationship's hanging by a strand
Em
So she's been on the web lately
G C D
Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man
Em G C
And I know she's using me to try to play him, I don't care
Hi Suzanne, but I shoulda' said "Bye Suzanne"
after the first night, but tonight I am
[Chorus]
Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G C
Been a lover, been a cheat
D Em G C Am
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
Em G C
Well little one, I don't want to admit to something
D Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
G C Am
Truth in my lies right now are falling like the rain
So let the river run
[Verse 2]
Em G
One night stand turned into night stayin'
C D
It was cold, some lights gram, y'all be hung tight and
Em G
He found out, now she feels deserted and used
C Am D
'Cause he left, so what? He did it first to her too
Em G
Now how am I supposed to tell this girl that we're through?
C D
It's hard to find the words, I'm aloof, nervous and suited
Em
When it's too hurt but what you deserve is the truth
G C Am D
Don't take it personal, I just can't say this in person to you
Em G C
So I revert to the studio like Hole In The Wall diners
D
Don't have to be reserved in a booth
Em G
I just feel like the person who I'm turnin' into is
C Am D
Irreversible, I prayed on you like it's church at the pew
Em
And now that I got you I don't want you
G C
Took advantage of my thirst to pursue
D
Why do I do this dirt that I do?
Em G
Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon in speech
C
Detergent and bleach is burned in the womb
'Cause now with her in the womb
We can't bring her in this world, shoulda' knew
To use protection 'fore I bit into your forbidden fruit
Fuck!
[Chorus]
Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G C
Been a lover, been a cheat
D Em G C Am
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
Em G C
Well little one, I don't want to admit to something
D Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
G C Am
Truth in my lies right now are falling like the rain
So let the river run
Em G C
Ooh Ohh Ohh
Em G C
Ooh Ohh Ohh
C D
Always the bridesmaid, never the bride hey
C
What can I say, if life was a highway
Em
This sequel's an enclave, I'll be swerving in 5 lanes
D C
Speeds at a high rate, like I'm sliding on ice made
Em
Thats what I made, came at you sideways,
D C
I can't keep my lies straight, What I made you terminate
Em D
This love triangle left us in a rectangle
C
What else can I say, it was fun for a while
Bet I really would've loved your smile
Didnt really wanna...
but fuck it, whats one more lie to tell an unborn child
[Chorus]
Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G C
Been a lover, been a cheat
D Em G C Am
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
Em G C
Well, little one, I don't want to admit to something
D Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
G C
Truth in my lies right now are falling like the rain
D
So let the river run
