Verse #1

C                  G      C
Why do people tell lies,
                   G     Am
Just to see others cry,
                          C
They tell you I've been untrue,
                      G
If you believe them,
                 C
You're believing lies

Verse #2

C                          G     C
Oh darling, believe what I say,
                          G     Am
Don't let your heart get away,
                                    C
Don't listen to gossip that's going round,
                      G
If you believe them,
                 C
You're believing lies

Chorus

G                               C
Don't believe a word they say,
                                         G
They're trying to get things their way,
                     Am
If you believe every word you hear,
       D (1)*            G
You'll wind up with only tears

Verse #3

C                         G      C
I know things look out of hand,
                     G       Am
But if you just understand,
                                 C
I'll clear things up if you just wait,
                      G
If you believe them,
                 C
You're believing lies

They're trying to get things their way,
                     Am
If you believe every word you hear,
       D (1)*            G
You'll wind up with only tears
