Three Chords and a Lie
Well, I talked to my brother just the other day
Said he saw her with some guy out on the interstate
In a Chevrolet
Now, he ain't the kind to go and make some story up
So, it must've been a girl that looked just like she does
In that truck
She said she's in Mexico with a few of her girlfriends
And then they headed up to Dallas for a long weekend
The last time that I talked to her said she just needed time
So tonight, I'm gettin' by with three chords and a lie
A couplе buddies said they saw her hangin' on somеone's arm
Next town over, they weren't sober
And it's always dark in that smoky bar
I'd sure like to meet this girl that looks like mine
But until I do, all the rest of you
Can let the rumors fly, yeah, I'll be fine
Well, she said she's in Mexico with a few of her girlfriends
And then they headed up to Dallas for a long weekend
The last time that I talked to her said she just needed time
So tonight, I'm gettin' by with three chords and a lie
Three chords and a lie
Pickin' up this old six-string
Playin' it straight from the heart
And if everybody knows the truth but me
I still wanna believe that
She's just down in Mexico with a few of her girlfriends
And then they headed up to Dallas for a long weekend
The last time that I talked to her said she just needed time
So tonight, I'm gettin' by with three chords and a lie
Three chords and a lie
Mm-hm-hm
Said he saw her with some guy out on the interstate
In a Chevrolet
Now, he ain't the kind to go and make some story up
So, it must've been a girl that looked just like she does
In that truck
She said she's in Mexico with a few of her girlfriends
And then they headed up to Dallas for a long weekend
The last time that I talked to her said she just needed time
So tonight, I'm gettin' by with three chords and a lie
A couplе buddies said they saw her hangin' on somеone's arm

Well, she said she's in Mexico with a few of her girlfriends
And then they headed up to Dallas for a long weekend
The last time that I talked to her said she just needed time
So tonight, I'm gettin' by with three chords and a lie
Three chords and a lie
Pickin' up this old six-string
Playin' it straight from the heart
And if everybody knows the truth but me
I still wanna believe that
She's just down in Mexico with a few of her girlfriends
And then they headed up to Dallas for a long weekend
The last time that I talked to her said she just needed time
So tonight, I'm gettin' by with three chords and a lie
Three chords and a lie
Mm-hm-hm
