Tom: C
C C C C
[Verse 1]
C
It's midnight and I give up
I'm tired of lying for you
Am C
I will not hold your hands and pretend I'm your lover
C
You must admit the turnouts
Have all been less than grand
Am C
There's no more police escorts or the high school welcome bands
[Chorus]
F C
I'm no lie detector
F C G Am
He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
F C Am F
What should be known to all the au- thors
C C
[Verse 2]
C
Now they've put away the kissing booths
The chapstick gossip's truth
Am C
The only donkey they'll be riding boy is the one wearing your shoes
C
Now they've heard it through the walls
Of telephone operators
Am C
And I found out from someone else, he said he was your brother
[Chorus]
F C
I'm no lie detector
F C G Am
He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
F C Am F
What should be known to all the au- thors
C C
[Bridge]
F C G
I don't care if I'm the only one who's not payin'
F C G
'Cause honey I am done staying up all night waitin'
C C C C
[Verse 3]
C
Now we're all tying the ribbons of worry to your tree
Am C
Your passing will make the headlines but sadly no one will read
C
Just how the town's hopeless romantic, had his heart on his sleeve
Am C
Died alone in a car park of a local library
[Chorus]
F C
I'm no lie detector
F C G Am
He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
F C Am
What should be known to all the au- thors
F C
I'm no lie detector
F C G Am
He's no bullshit talker and we both know who knows
F C Am
What should be known to all the au- thors
