Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Onc[A]e there [B]were t[Bm]imes
Once there were [F#m]reasons
filled with [G]rhymes
Everything [Bm]shared, [A]everything told
You keep me [B]so [Bm]warm
Protect me [F#m]from all those
[G]mighty storms
[Bm]And dreams seem [A]so old

[Verse 2]
So look at [Asus4]us now
Just [A]look at us now
With our [Asus4]hands on our hea[D]rts
And [A]lines on our brow

[Verse 3]
[D]How many lie[F#m]s must we tell[G]?
[D]How many lie[F#m]s must we see?[G]
[D]How many tim[F#m]es must we
[G]Say it's for [Bb]the best?
And leave [Eb]truth as the [D]casualty?

[Verse 4]
[A]Do you read through
[B]the[Bm] lines
Or believe [F#m]the TV and [G]the Times?
Where can we [Bm]find more [A]ways to see?
You strain [B]on [Bm]the truth
And make believe [F#m]all when
[G]you cry wolf
[Bm]And the lies you're giv[A]ing me
So look [Asus4]at us now Just

[Verse 5]
[Asus4]
look at us [A]now
With our [D]hands on our hearts
And [A]lines on our brow

[Verse 6]
[D]How many lie[F#m]s must we tell[G]?
[D]How many lie[F#m]s must we s[G]ee?
[D]How many tim[F#m]es must we
[G]Say it's for [Bb]the best?
And leave [Eb]truth as the casu[G]alty?

(Instrumental Interlude) [D]Well the
truth is hard
So when they [F#m]write the book
[G]Fiction's what you wanna be
Well, it's your [D]freedom of choice
But you [F#m]know that lies,
are the [G]cancer of [C]democracy
You've [D]painted your face
And now you've [F#m]tainted
your word[D]s
And now you're [G]ready
and armed with love
[C]Well if you're [D]head is steady
And your [F#m]soul is ready
[G]We're going up [E]above
So [G]whatever you wanna be
Just [E]come on along with me
If there's [G]truth in our hearts
[Asus4]Maybe we can bre[A]ak fre[Asus4]e[A]
