[Intro]
           Em                       C 
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, 
             G                               Dadd11 
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts. 
           Em                      C 
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry, 
             G                                Dadd11 
But that's alright because I love the way you lie, 
                   (slide on D string) 
I love the way you lie
[Estrofa]
                          Em 
I can't tell you what it 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, 
                      C 
it's like I'm huffin' 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                                                      G 
Come back. We're running right back, here we go again, 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                      N.C. 
I guess I don't know my own strength
[Estribillo]
           Em                       C 
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, 
             G                               Dadd11 
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts. 
           Em                      C 
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry, 
             G                                Dadd11 
But that's alright because I love the way you lie, 
                   Em             C 
I love the way you lie 
                   G              Dadd11       N.C. 
I love the way you lie
[Estrofa]
                  Em 
You ever love somebody so much, you can barely breathe when you're with 'em? 
    C 
You meet, and neither one of you even know what hit 'em 
         G 
Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah them chills, used to get 'em 
           Dadd11 
Now you're gettin' fuckin' sick of lookin' at 'em 
                      Em 
You swore you'd never hit 'em, never do nothin' to hurt 'em 
                           C 
Now you're in each other's face spewing venom in your words when you spit 'em 
    G 
You 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 
         Em 
It's the rage that took over, it controls you both 
                   C 
So they say, you'd best to go your separate ways 
                                    G 
Guess that they don't know ya cuz today, that was yesterday, 
                              Dadd11 
Yesterday is over and it's a different day,  
                                                Em 
Sound like broken records playing over but you promised her, 
                                               C 
next time you'd show restraint, you don't get another chance 
                                        G 
Life is no nintendo game, but you lied again  
  
Now you get to watch her leave out the window  
             Dadd11 
Guess that's why they call it "window pane"
[Estribillo]
           Em                       C 
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn, 
             G                               Dadd11 
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts. 
           Em                      C 
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry, 
             G                                Dadd11 
But that's alright because I love the way you lie, 
                   Em             C 
I love the way you lie 
                   G              Dadd11       N.C. 
I love the way you lie
[Estrofa]
              Em 
Now I know we said things, did things that we didn't mean 
       C 
And we 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 
    Em 
Baby please come back, it wasn't you. Baby it was me, 
     C 
Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems 
     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 
       C 
I apologize, even though I know it's lies 
                 G 
I'm tired of the games, I just want her back. I know I'm a liar, 
       Dadd11                       N.C. 
If she ever tries to fuckin' leave again, 
  
Ima tie her to the bed and set this house on fire 
  
Just gonna 
[Estribillo]
Em                       C 
Stand there and watch me burn, 
             G                               Dadd11 
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts. 
           Em                      C 
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry, 
             G                                Dadd11 
But that's alright because I love the way you lie, 
                   Em             C 
I love the way you lie 
                   G              Dadd11       N.C. 
I love the way you lie
