Please Don't Lie by Ryan Cabrera
Intro: Am F G
Am F
You're lost on.....an island
Am F
Shipwrecked off the coast
Am F C
I'm tryin'....to reach you.....I can't get close
G F G C
And all I....ever wanted....was something....beautiful
{Chorus:}
Am C
Please don't lie to me It's all I ask of you
Am C
Please don't lie to me Hurt me with the truth
C
Whatever you say Couldn't take me away
G C F
I'm right by your side Please don't lie
Am F
You're perfect.....too perfect
Am F
The painting...never cracks
Am F C
So show me.....the canvas.....behind the mask
G F
So tell me....what you're thinkin'
G C
I know that....there's more to say
{Chorus}
G
Show me you're there
G
Show me you're there
G
I'm on the outside
G
I know you're scared
{Chorus}
*Note: I roughly put these chords together. I'm not so sure about the INTRO and the last verse but you are more than welcome to fix it up.
