| Everything I | ever wante | d is one | lie away |
| C | Am | F | G | |
| To | be so close and | now to know there's | nothing we can | say |
| C | C7 | F | Fm | |
| For the | things I can't take | back | severely I will | pay |
| C | Am | F | G | C | |
| And every | thing | I ever | wanted is | one lie a | way |
| G | C | |
| Being so wrong d | oesn't take long |
| G | C | |
| But not holding | on goes on and | on |
| C | C7 | |
| And if | you could see what's | left of me |
| F | Fm | |
| Has to | go through every | day |
| C | Am | F | G | C | |
| You'd know every | thing I | ever | wanted is | one lie a | way |
| Chorus |
| C | C7 | |
| No you | can't take back your | actions |
| F | Fm | |
| Only | hope and pray and | change |
| C | Am | F | G | C | |
| And every | thing | I ever | wanted is | one lie a | way |
