D
There?s never a star in this sky
A
Never a boat in this sea
Only the voice of a thousand lies
G D
Choking the truth out of me
Until I?ve fallen immune to her lies
Or learned to turn a deaf ear to her pleas
I will never begin to be satisfied
She?ll never again let me be
A
Don?t let her turn your temperance
G D
Away from the simple and sound
A G D
Or she will damn you darkly down
G
At the bottom of the bottle it makes no difference
D
If I keep drinkin? or drown
A G D
Cause I can?t go much lower than I am right now
G D
By the time I find my home
A D
I?ll be all scars and broken bones
G D
A head full of lies, a heart of stone
A G D
Voice like a freight train?s cold whistle moan
No, no I cannot promise nothing
G D
That I cannot know for sure
I won?t say never or forever
A
I have told those lies before
D
Please don?t ask me to proclaim, my love
G D
That my love for you will grow
G D
That I desire to love you ?til I die
A G D
Ain?t that all you need to know
But your desires burn like fires
G D
Then they quickly flicker down
And all the while your constant smile
A
Will never show the fires went out
D
And when they do you won?t come home one night
G D
And you?ll leave me all alone
G D
So don?t tell me of desire my love
A G D
Tell me true, you?ll never go
Or by the time you find your home
You?ll be all scars and broken bones
A head full of lies, a heart of stone
Voice like a freight train?s cold whistle moan
There?s never a star in this sky
A
Never a boat in this sea
Only the voice of a thousand lies
G D
Choking the truth out of me
Until I?ve fallen immune to her lies
Or learned to turn a deaf ear to her pleas
I will never begin to be satisfied
She?ll never again let me be

Don?t let her turn your temperance

Away from the simple and sound
