Living a Lie Violent Femmes
[A]There's a fire in the basement,
a fire on the roof.
I'm just sitting in my chair wearing a smile.
I'm going to vanish in the air after awhile.
Did did [E]you get the news that I'm lost at sea
Hey, hey somebody's confused though it couldn't be me.
I [A]wasn't near that place.
I don't know where it was.
She didn't see my face.
You know its true because
[D]I know wise things.
I know about these things.
[A]I know why it is [E]caged,
so I don't know why I'm [A]enraged.
[A]I'm lying about my birth and I'm lying about my death.
For all I'm worth, I lie with every breath.
Lying homes are built on my crying habitations.
Here's the milk that I spilt,
my undying lamitations
[D]I know about these things, I know about these things
[A]I know why it is [E]caged,
so I don't know why I'm [A]enraged.
Bass/Guitar Solo:
[A]Always the bride's maid, [E]never the bride.
[D]Look what my bride's made, [A]out of my life.
[A]Always the bride's maid, [E]never the bride.
[D]Look what your bride's made, [A]you shook my life.
[A]Always the bride's maid, [E]never the bride.
[D]Look what your bride's made, and you know,[A] you shouldn't have lied.
