Verse:
GDisappear from your hometown G/F#
Em* D C /Csus2
Go and find the people that you know
Show them all your good parts
Leave town when bad ones start to show
Go and wed a woman
A pretty girl that you’ve never met
Make sure she knows you love her well
But don’t make any other promises
Chorus:
GThe weight of lies wCill bring you down
And folloAmw you to every town D
Cause nothinGg happens here Cthat doesn’t happen there D
So wheGn you run make sure you run C
To sometAmhing and not away from D
Cause lies dGon’t need an aeroplaCne to chase you anywhDere
Verse:
I once heard the worse thing
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
But leaving out his doubt
I’m not sure I bought those words
When I was young I knew most everything
These words have never met so much to anyone
As they now mean to me
