Okkervil River - Pop Lie

A E l E l A E B l x2

B A E
all sweetly sung and succinctly stated
A E
words and music he calculated
F#m B
to make you sing along

F#m B A E
B
with your stereo on as you stand in shorts on your lawn

B A E
get completely incorporated
A E
by some couple who consummated
F#m B
all their love by the dawn
F#m B A E
B
a falling star wished upon that flashed in the sky and was gone

E F#m A B
and mouths wet and blonde hair braided
A E
by the back room the kids all waited
F#m B
to meet the man in bright green
F#m B A
B
who had dreamed up the dream that they wrecked their hearts upon

A E B
he�s the liar who lied in his pop song
F#m B
and you�re lying when you sing along
F#m B
yes you�re lying when you sing along


A E l E l A E B l x2


B A E
so here�s the car seat so cruelly weighted
A E
and here�s to faces already faded
F#m B
at the end of a day
F#m B A E
B
when they just threw away the only good thing that they owned
E F#m A B
and now they�re pinned down and strangula---ted
A E
at the food court the float�s inflated
F#m B
people line up to see
F#m B A
B
the man who dreamed up the dream that they wrecked their hearts upon

A E B
he�s the liar who lied in his pop song
A E B
the liar who lied in his pop song
F#m B
and you�re lying when you sing along,
F#m B
oh yeah you�re lying when you sing along

A B
week by week it climbs up and climbs on
E F#m
and we�re feeling all right but we know it�s all wrong
A B E
I�m ashamed to admit that I cannot resist
F#m
what I wish were the truth but it�s not
A E B
and I truly believe we�re not strong
A E B
and we�ll sing until our voices are gone
A E B
and then sink beneath the manicured lawn

A E l E l A E B l x2

B A E
This is respectfully dedicated
A E
to the woman who concentrated
F#m B
all of her love to find
F#m B A E
B
that she had wasted it on the liar who lied in this song
