Intro chords
My friends all ask how Im doin
Since you took your sweet love away
And I know that theyre just showing they care
But what do they expect me to say
Chorus 1
So I lie, I tell them Im alright
I lie, I tell them Im fine
I dont think they really want to know the truth
whats the use, what can they do
So I look them straight in the eye and I lie
They offer a shoulder to cry on
Anytime, I just have to call
But little do they know, the river that would flow
If I let the first teardrop fall
Chorus 1 Again
So I lie, I tell them Im alright
I lie, I tell them Im fine
I dont think they really want to know the truth
whats the use, what can they do
So I look them straight in the eye and I lie
Bridge
Ive often wondered what Id do if I were to, run into you
Would my heart fall at your feet, would my foolish pride get the best of me
Honestly, I believe
Chorus 2
That Id lie and tell you Im alright
I lie, Id tell you Im fine
I could never ever let you know the truth
That Im still in love, and so confused
So Id hide my pain deep inside
Then Id look you straight in the eye and Id lie
