Okkervil River  -  Pop Lie

A  E   l E   l A E B l x2

B                        A          E
    all sweetly sung and succinctly stated
A                       E
    words and music he calculated
F#m                     B
     to  make you sing along
F#m                   B         A        E
 B
     with your stereo on as you stand in shorts on your lawn

B                     A    E
     get completely incorporated
A                       E
     by some couple who consummated
F#m                        B
     all their love by the dawn
F#m                       B        A              E
       B
   a falling star wished upon that flashed in the sky and was gone

E                  F#m                  A    B
     and mouths wet      and blonde hair braided
A                         E
     by the back room the kids all waited
F#m                     B
     to meet the man in bright green
F#m                      B                A
      B
   who had dreamed up the dream that they wrecked their hearts upon

         A        E           B
he’s the liar who lied in his pop song
           F#m                  B
and you’re lying when you sing along
           F#m                 B
yes you’re lying when you sing along


A  E   l E   l A E B l x2

B                              A       E
     so here’s the car seat so cruelly weighted
A                          E
     and here’s to faces already faded
F#m                  B
  at the end of a day
F#m                       B        A         E
       B
     when they just threw away the only good thing that they owned
                E             F#m              A    B
and now they’re    pinned down      and strangula---ted
A                          E
    at the food court the float’s inflated
F#m                   B
    people line up to see
F#m                          B               A
      B
	  the man who dreamed up the dream that they wrecked their hearts upon

         A        E           B
he’s the liar who lied in his pop song
    A        E           B
the liar who lied in his pop song
           F#m                 B
and you’re lying when you sing along,
               F#m                 B
oh yeah you’re lying when you sing along

A                          B
     week by week it climbs up and climbs on
          E                        F#m
and we’re feeling all right but we know it’s all wrong
A                     B                   E
     I’m ashamed to admit that I cannot resist
                    F#m
what I wish were the truth but it’s not
      A       E              B
and I truly believe we’re not strong
          A              E         B
and we’ll sing until our voices are gone
         A                E        B
and then sink beneath the manicured lawn

A  E   l E   l A E B l x2

B                         A   E
     This is respectfully dedicated
A                     E
     to the woman who concentrated
F#m                    B
     all of her love to find
F#m                        B       A        E
  B
     that she had wasted it on the liar who lied in this song
