Lies Stan Rogers
[G] [D]
[Am] [B] [C] [D] [C]
At [G]last the kids are gone now for the [D]day
She [Em]reaches for the [C]coffee as the [G]school bus pulls a[D]way
An[G]other day to tend the house and [D]plan
For [Em]Friday at the Leg[C]ion when she's [G]dancing with her [D]man
Sure [G]was a bitter winter, but [D]Friday will be fine
And [Em]maybe last year's Easter dres[D]s will [C]serve her one more time
She'd [G]pass for twenty-nine but for her [D]eyes
But [Am]winter lines are [D]telling wicked [G]lies
All[Am] li[B]es[C]..[D]..[C] All those [G]lines, they're telling [Am]wicked [D]lies
[Am]Lie[B]s.[C]...[D] Al[C]l lies....
Too [G]many lines there in that face
Too [A]many to erase or to disg[C]uise
They [D]must be telling [G]lies[D] [Am] [B] [C] [D] [C]
Is th[G]is the face that won for her the [D]man
Whose [Em]amazed and clumsy [C]fingers put that [G]ring upon her [D]hand
No nee[G]d to search that mirror for the y[D]ears
The [Em]menace in their m[C]essage shouts a[G]cross the blur of [D]tears
So [G]this beauty's finish? Like [D]Rodin's "Belle Heaulmiere"?
The [Em]pretty maiden trapped ins[D]ide the ran[C]ch wife's toil and care
Well, [G]after seven kids, that's no surpr[D]ise
But [Am]why cannot her mi[D]rror tell her l[G]ies?
All[Am] li[B]es[C]..[D]..[C] All those [G]lines, they're telling [Am]wicked [D]lies
[Am]Lie[B]s.[C]...[D] Al[C]l lies....
Too [G]many lines there in that face
Too [A]many to erase or to disg[C]uise
They [D]must be telling [G]lies[D] [Am] [B] [C] [D] [C]
(soft)
Then [G]she shakes off the bitter web she [D]wove
'n t[Em]urns to set the m[C]irror gently [G]face down by the [D]stove
She [G]gathers up her apron in her [D]hand
[Em]Pours a cup of co[C]ffee, drips Car[G]nation from the [D]can
(strong)
And th[G]inks ahead to Friday, 'cause [D]Friday will be fine
She'll [Em]look up in that weathered [D]face that [C]loves hers line for line
To [G]see that maiden shining in his [D]eyes
And [Em]laugh at how the [D]mirror tells her [G]lies
All[Am] li[B]es[C]..[D]..[C] All those [G]lines, are telling [Am]wicked [D]lies
[Am]Lie[B]s.[C]...[D] Al[C]l lies....
Too [G]many lines there in that face
Too [A]many to erase or to disg[C]uise
They [D]must be telling
[Am]lie[B]s.[C]..[D]. [C] All those l[G]ines, are telling [Am]wicked l[D]ies
[Am]Lie[B]s.[C]...[D] Al[C]l lies....
Too [G]many lines there in that face
Too [A]many to erase or to disg[C]uise
They [D]must be telling [G]lies [D] [Am] [B] [C] [D] [C]
