verse1:  chords: C - Gm - Eb - F
i was delayed i was waylaid
an emergency i stop i smelt the last 10 seconds of life
and crashed down on the crossbar
and the pain was enough to make a shy bald buddist reflect
and plan a mass murder
who said i'd lied to her
who said i'd lied because i never, i never
who said i'd lied because i never.

break: same
verse2: chords same
i was detained i was restrained
he broke my spleen he broke my knees and then he really laid in to (me)
friday night in outpatient who said i'd lied to her
who said i'd lied because i never, i never
who said i'd lied because i never.
and so i drank one it became four,
and when i fell on the floor i drank more
