C - F x4
C F C
In the time that remains the stars will fade
F C
Doesn't take what's wrong and make it right
F C F
It doesn't change what's come before
F G
A lot of people want to turn their heads
F Em Dm
And wave a flag and claim a moral fight
Em Dm
When there's nothing right about it
Em F C
One of the little lies of time
F C F
C F C
Just because you're after all the men
F C
Doesn't take what's wrong and make it right
F C F
It doesn't change what's come before
F G
A lot of people want to clear their head
F Em Dm
Or beat a drum and hold your head up high
Em Dm
When there's nothing right about it
Em F C
One of the little lies of time
F C F
(Break)
F G F G F G
C F C F
C F C
A freighter anchors close to shore
F C
Puts a weighted line, the sun goes down
F C F
And all this dirt, it turns to black
F G
A restless sleeper sticks his head outside
F Em Dm
And sees the light, and feels it come inside
Em Dm Em F
But he doesn't recognize, It's my kind of little lie and
Em Am Em
my tastes hold in the middle of the night
F
My kind of little lie and
Em Am Em
I know all the pretending it's all right
F G
My kind of little lying time
C F C F
Lying time
C F C F
A lying time
C
A lying time
not 100% on the lyrics to the last verse but there you go.
