INTRO: D  F#m  Bm  Am7  G  D  Em7

D         F#m
Beautiful lies
Bm       Am7            G
Cover my eyes with your hands
        D          Em7
Just pretend we're better
D            F#m
Turn out the light
Bm                  Am7          G
There are no more surprises to come
         D      Em7
Let's be numb together

D   Em7             D   Em7
The world's so fast and nothing lasts
D     Em7  D  G     D  A
Let's save it while we can

                Bm    Cadd9
Cause I want to be forever
     Bm           Cadd9
Like smoke in the air
Bm           Cadd9         G
Float like a feather going nowhere
Bm           Cadd9
Lost in the silence
        Bm         Cadd9
I don't need to be free
Bm           Cadd9
Kill me with kindness
    A
And please

        D         F#m
Tell me beautiful lies
Bm          Am7       G               D       Em7
I wish that I had the strength to let go, but I don't
D        F#m
I'm paralyzed
Bm        Am7           G            D            Em7
I see the child in your eyes and I'm stuck in the headlights

D Em7           D    Em7
I know too well that time will tell
D   Em7 D  G D  A
It's easy to forget

                D   G
Cause I want to be forever
     D            G
Like smoke in the air
D            Cadd9         G
Float like a feather going nowhere
Bm           Cadd9
Lost in the silence
        Bm         Cadd9
I don't need to be free
Bm           Cadd9
Kill me with kindness
    A
And please

               Em7          A
Oh, well, I've tried to be open
                    D                   G
But I've found it's hard when you're broken
           Em7            A         F#m  Bm
And in the heat of the moment, we're free
   Cadd9   A
So please, please
Cadd9     A
Please

D         F#m
Beautiful lies
Bm       Am7            G
Cover my eyes with your hands

Turn out the light
Bm                  Am7          G
There are no more surprises to come
         D      Em7
Let's be numb together

Capo 3 
 
Intro: Em   Em   Em   Em   Em   Em   Em   Em 
              
             Em 
The sweetest dreams I ever heard. 
 
How I hung on every word 
         B7                           Em 
When you told me we would always be together 
       Em 
On the earth down below 
 
There were things I didn't know 
       B7                       Em 
When I made all my plans for forever. 
 
C                     G 
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful lies 
D                        Em 
So sweet to hear but the truth's in your eyes 
C                 G       C    C7 
It was so easy to be hypnotised 
          Em          B7        Em   Em   Em   Em 
They were nothin' but beautiful lies 
 
         Em 
Well the words came with ease 
 
You could paint a masterpiece. 
B7                    Em 
Lines couldn't be any clearer 
 
Just like castles made o' sand 
 
Filled with sleight of hand 
       B7                     Em 
It was only a trick done with mirrors. 
 
C                     G 
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful lies 
  D                      Em 
I heard what I wanted to hear at the time 
C                 G       C    C7 
It was so easy to be hypnotised 
         Em            B7        Em   Em 
When you told me those beautiful lies 
 
 
Lead guitar and mandolin   C    C    G   G 
                           D    D    Em  Em  C   C 
                           G    C    C7  Em    B7    Em   Em   Em   Em 
 
            Em 
There's not much left to say 
 
'bout the scenes that I replay 
       B7                       Em 
That I watch on the walls of my room 
         Em 
Now it's lonely and late 
 
There's a fool who still waits 
        B7                   Em 
For the rose that will never bloom 
 
C                     G 
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful lies 
D                        Em 
So sweet to hear but the truth's in your eyes 
C                 G       C    C7 
It was so easy to be hypnotised 
         Em            B7        Em 
When you told me those beautiful lies 
C                 G       C    C7 
It was so easy to be hypnotised 
          Em            B7        Em 
While you told me those beautiful lies 
          Em          B7        Em 
They were nothing but beautiful lies
