All sweetly sung and

succinctly
E
stated
A
Words and music he
E
calculated
F♯m
To make you sing
B
along
As you
A
stand in your
E
shorts on your
B
lawn
B
Get
A
completely
E
incorporated
A
By some couple who
E
consummated
F♯m
Their first love by the
B
dawn
F♯m
A falling star wished
B
upon
A
And flashed in the
E
sky and was
B
gone
And
E
that’s when

By the back room, the
A
kids all
E
waited
A
To meet the man in bright
B
green
F♯m
Who had dreamed up the
B
dream that
A
they
E
wrecked their hearts
B
upon
He’s the
A
liar who
E
lied in his
B
pop song
F♯m
And you’re lying when you sing
B
along

And you’re lying when you sing
B

And now they’re

But at the food court, the
A
float’s
E
inflated
F♯m
People line up to

see the
F♯m
man who dreamed up the
B
dream that they
A
wrecked their

He’s the

The

And
F♯m
you’re lying when you sing

Oh

Week by week, it climbs
B
up and comes on
And we’re
E
feeling alright, though we know it’s
F♯m
all wrong
I’m
A
ashamed to admit
B
that I can’t help resist
E
what I wished was the truth, but
F♯m
it’s not
And I
A
truly
E
believe we’re not

strong
And we’ll
A
sing til our
E
voices
B
are gone
And I’ll
A
sink into that
E
manicured
B
lawn
B
This is
A
respectfully
E
dedicated

To the woman who
E
concentrated
F♯m
All of her love to
B
find
F♯m
That she’d wasted
B
it on
The
A
liar who
E
lied in this
B
song
