Verse
Bm A
We met on open streets, where we both have no place to go
Bm A G
I remember how my heart beat when you said, oh, Billy, 'I love you so'
A Bm G
Now standing in the doorway, did you ever think we could ever look this old?
A Bm
Victims of the little white lies we told
Verse
Bm A
We did not count tomorrows, we took what we could and and ran
Bm A G
There was no time for sorrow, ever place we went I held your hand
A Bm G
And when the night closed in, I was sure your kisses told me all I had to know
A Bm
But they never whispered the little white lies we told
Bridge
A Bm
It's so good at the start, nothing could ever pull it apart
A G A
Running hand and hand through the rain, but soon the heartbreak, soon the pain, girl
Verse
Bm A
There were no cold denials, your body really lied
Bm A G
It wasn't in the things we said girl, just types and promises in light
A Bm G
And when it began to fall apart, eatin' quietly away from the inside
A Bm
Bit by bit by those little white lies

Verse/Outro
G A Bm G
Now standing in the doorway, did you ever think, ever think we could ever look this old?
A Bm
Victims of the little white lies we told
G A Bm G
Now lying here in the dark, did you ever think, ever think we could be this cold?
A Bm G A
Just as cold as the little white lies we told
Bm G A
Little white lies
Bm G A
Little white lies
Bm G A
Little white lies
