Intro
Just gonna [Em]stand there and watch me [C]burn,
But that's al[G]alright because I like the way it [Dadd11]hurts.
Just gonna [Em]stand there and hear me [C]cry,
But that's al[G]alright because I love the way you [Dadd11]lie,
(slide on D string)
I love the way you lie
Verse
I can't tell you what it r[Em]really is, I can only tell you what it feels like
[C]And right now, there's a steel knife in my windpipe
[G]I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
Dadd11
As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight
[Em]High off of love, drunk from my hate,
it's like I'm huffin' [C]paint and I love it, the more I suffer, I suffocate
[G]And right before I'm about to drown, she resuscitates
Dadd11
Me, she fuckin' hates me, and I love it, Wait!
[Em]Where you going? I'm leaving you. No you ain't,
[C]Come back. We're running right back, here we go again, [G]it's so insane
Cuz when it's going good, it's going great
Dadd11
I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane
[Em]But when and it's bad, it's awful, I feel so ashamed,
[C]I snap "Who's that dude?", I don't even know his name
[G]I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again
Dadd11
I guess I don't know my own strength
Chorus
Just gonna [Em]stand there and watch me [C]burn,
But that's al[G]alright because I like the way it [Dadd11]hurts.
Just gonna [Em]stand there and hear me [C]cry,
But that's al[G]alright because I love the way you [Dadd11]lie,
I love the way you [Em]lie [C]
I love the way you [G]lie [Dadd11]
Verse 2
You ever love some[Em]somebody so much, you can barely breathe when you with 'em?
You [C]meet, and neither one of you even know it hit 'em
Got that [G]warm fuzzy feeling, yeah them chills used to get 'em
Dadd11
Now you gettin' fuckin' sick of lookin' at 'em
You swore you'd never [Em]hit 'em, never do nothin' to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's [C]face spewing venom in your words when you spit 'em
You [G]push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em
Dadd11
Throw 'em down, pin 'em, so lost in the moments when you're in 'em
It's the [Em]face that's the culprit, controls you both
So they say, you'd [C]best to go your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya cuz to[G]today, that was yesterday,
Dadd11
Yesterday is over and it's a different day,
Sound like broken records playing over but you p[Em]promised her,
next time you'd show restraint, you don't get a[C]another chance
Life is no nintendo game, but you lied a[G]again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Dadd11
Guess that's why they call it "window pane"
Chorus
Just gonna [Em]stand there and watch me [C]burn,
But that's al[G]alright because I like the way it [Dadd11]hurts.
Just gonna [Em]stand there and hear me [C]cry,
But that's al[G]alright because I love the way you [Dadd11]lie,
I love the way you [Em]lie [C]
I love the way you [G]lie [Dadd11]
Verse 3
Now I know we [Em]said things, did things that we didn't mean
And we [C]fall back into the same patterns, same routine
[G]But your temper's just as bad as mine is; you're the same as me
Dadd11
When it comes to love you're just as blinded
Baby[Em]Baby please come back, it wasn't you. Baby it was me,
Maybe[C]Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe[G]Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
Dadd11
All I know is I love you too much, to walk away though
[Em]Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
[C]Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
[G]Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
Dadd11
Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall
[Em]Next time? There won't be no next time
I apolo[C]apologize, even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the [G]games, I just want her back. I know I'm a liar,
Dadd11
If she ever tries to fuckin' leave again,
Ima tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
Just gonna
Chorus
[Em]Stand there and watch me [C]burn,
But that's al[G]alright because I like the way it [Dadd11]hurts.
Just gonna [Em]stand there and hear me [C]cry,
But that's al[G]alright because I love the way you [Dadd11]lie,
I love the way you [Em]lie [C]
I love the way you [G]lie [Dadd11]
