(verse)
E5          G5           D5              E5(VII)  C5
I've got no politics, no influential friend or two 
E5         G5            D5                E5(VII)  C5
I've got ideas, but it's nothing I picked up at school 
E5         G5               D5              E5(VII)  C5
I might be running, but I'm never running back to you

(bridge — riff 1)
And here's a letter from the real world, I don't expect you'll reply 
And anything you're gonna tell me, it's just another lie

(verse)
I had to wait so long that weeks and months that passed me by 
You've got no power and my situation don't apply 
You ask me how I am, I lie and say I'm doing fine

(bridge)
And with your sugar—sweetened alibi, there was a truth I never knew 
And all the attitude you gave me, it's coming back to you

(chorus)
G                           D5       E5(VII) C5
String of lies, it's always compromise with you 
G                                D5         E5(VII) C5
String of lies, you know there's nothing better to do 
G                           D5             E5(VII) C5
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you

(bridge)
And here's a letter from the real world, I don't expect you'll reply 
And anything you're gonna tell me, it's just another lie

(solo)
E5—G5—D5—E5(VII)—C5
(4 times)

(chorus)
String of lies, we always compromise for you 
String of lies, you know there's nothing better to do 
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you 
String of lies, we always compromise for you
