[Gm][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]There's a little something
[F#m]that's been o[G]n my mind,
I've [C#]been [D]thinking [F#m]about lies,
the [Bm]little white kind.
[D]Everybody tells them
but that [G]don't make it right
[Abdim]and I guess[Ab] that's why they
[G]keep us awake [D]at [A]night.
[D]Here's a for in[F#m]stance a
[G]friend comes around
[D]says you like my new haircut.
[Bm]Hey, I got it downtown
[Eb]but they res[D]emble something ragged
that the [G]cat dragged in.
If you say they [Gm]look great
[D]is it really a sin[A]?[G]
[D]What you gonna do
when your back [G]is to [A]the [D]wall?
[C#]The coin[D] is in t[Bm]he air,
you've got [Bb]to make the c[Eb]all.
[D]Every little lie
[G]is like a tiny tattoo on [Abdim]your soul.
[A]Tell me what you're gonna do.[D]
[Dm]Say [D]you're walking down the street
with [G]your wallet way low
[D]and a guy up [C#]ahead [F#m]drops
a [Bm]fifty dollar [A]note.
[D]Do you put it in your pocket[F#m]
or do you [G]holler out?
[Abdim]Well, you get t[A]he picture.
[D]what I'm [Ab]talking [Am]about.
Or may[D]be there's some skeletons
behind [G]your closet door
[Gm]but [C#]the bones[D] are dry and dusty[F#m]
and [Bm]you don't think about them anymore.
[D]Then you[Eb]r lover [D]asks a question
looks you right [G]square [Gm]in the face
[Ab]and you know[Abm] an honest a[G]nswe[Ab]r
means a [G]fall [Bm]from grac[A]e.
[D]What you gon[C#]na do
[F#m]when your back i[G]s to t[A]he wall?
[C#]The coin[D] is in t[Bm]he air
and you've gotta make a [D]call.
Every little lie
[Gm]Eyes [G]like a tiny tattoo [Abdim]on your soul,
[A]tell me [Am]what you gonna d[D]o[G][D]
[Gm][G][Eb][D][A][D]
[G][Ab][Gm][A][D][A]
[D]These days they're talking about
[Gm]marijuana [G]in school
And [A]the [D]health teacher's saying,
[F#]getting high[Bm] ain't cool.
So your [Eb]kid [D]comes home
and asks [F#m]you, Daddy,
[G]did you ever smoke?
[Abdim]And the ans[E]wer is [A]affirma[G]tive,
but you want to [Gm]just say [Am]no.
And it [D]starts with a [F#m]cheat sheet
[G]on a [Gm]third grade test.
[G]And [D]30 years later,
you're [F#]cheating the [Bm]IRS.
[D]It's a rationalization eve[G]ry single day[Gm].
[Ab]But ther[Gm]e's going [A]to be
[Am]some [D]ethical hell [D]to [Gm]pay.
[G]What [D]you gonna do
when your back [G]is to the [D]wall?
[C#]The coin is in t[D]he air
and [F#]you gott[Bm]a make the call
[D]Eve[Eb]ry lit[D]tle lie
is [G]like a tiny tattoo [Abdim]on your s[E]oul
[A]Tell me what you[D] gonna do[Eb][D]
[G]Now thi[E]s tune's[D] got no moral,
it's [G]just food for thought
[D]But the next time you're [F#m]tempted,
I [Bm]hope you don't get caught
[D]Twixt [Eb]a ro[D]ck and a hard place,
chasing [G]St. [Gm]Pete's bus[Ab]
But I got a [Am]feelin' heaven's
[G]full of people [D]just [E]like us
[A]Wha[D]t you gonna do
when [G]your back is to the [Gm]wall?
[C#]That coin [D]is in the air
an[Bm]d you gotta make the [Eb]call
[D]Every little lie
[G]is like a tiny tattoo on [Ab]your soul
[A]Tell me what you gonna [D]do[G][D][Gm][G][C#]
[D][G][Bm][D][G]
[Abdim][Ab][D][A][D][A][D][Gm]
[G][D][G][Eb][D]
