Intro: Fm G Cm G 


verse 1 
     Fm               G  
They stand before the alter 
     Cm               G 
They stand before themselves 
     Fm             G  
For richer or for poorer, 
     Cm               G 
in sickness and in health 


Pre-Chorus 
Ab            G  
Words are mostly meaningless 
Bbm                  G 
the only truth that really is

Ab                 Fm 
We’re all getting by  
        Cm            Eb 
telling lies, telling lies 
Ab             Fm 
Everyone we love 
Cm                  Eb 
is telling lies, telling lies 
        Ab                 Fm 
Maybe that’s why I never felt like I  
   Cm                    Eb 
could look you in the eyes 
Ab          Fm 
Everyone alive 
           Cm 
is telling lies

She feels the whole world on her shoulders 
       Cm               G 
as she tucks her kid in bed 
        Fm                  G 
It gets better when you’re older 
         Cm                     G  
and they believe the words she says 


Pre-Chorus 
Ab            G  
Words are mostly meaningless 
Bbm                  G 
the only truth that really is

Ab               Fm 
We don't really mind  
         Cm            Eb 
Telling lies, telling lies 
Ab                       Fm 
Cause we're all getting by 
         Cm            Eb 
Telling lies, telling lies 
        Ab                 Fm 
Maybe that’s why I never felt like I  
      Cm                   Eb 
Could trust any friend of mine 
Ab          Fm 
Everyone alive

as I’m lying on my back

have I been getting fat?"

Maybe that is why I can justify 
      Cm            Eb 
the way I live my life
