Em
Gorgeous girls are bound to meet
    D
To talk of stars and kings and feet
  Em                                  D
Through the chromosomes of space and time
Em
Me I'm fast like bad infection
 D
Gasping for my resurrection
 Em                                D
Swear to me in times of war and stress

Chorus:
        Em  D
Telling lies
        Em  D
Telling lies
        Em  D
Telling lies
        Em  D
Telling lies
        Am                     G
Telling lies (Oh ah visionary oh ah visionary)

Telling lies
  C                           D
(feels like somethings gonna happen this year)
        Am                     G
Telling lies (Oh ah visionary oh ah visionary)

Telling lies
  C                           D
(feels like somethings gonna happen this year)

Am
Teeelliinggg Liiieesss

Shadow falls in shrinking smiles
See me poised at the happy games
Standing in the mouth of all that's pure
Come straggling in your tattered remnants
You come to me with tears and blame
I'm your future
I am tomorrow
I am the end

Chorus
