D C D C D C Em G C Darling when I was your age I could do anything G Em Bm There were days of rock 'n roll And lunar strolls and friendship rings G C And baby I told myself I'd follow my deepest dreams G Em D Knowing if I did my best Success would always follow me Em It was another good lie C G D G Coming down like a freezing rain From a hot blue sky Em Another good lie C D Coming in like a crosstown hurricane on fire Em Another good lie C G D C Coming down on your Daddy's soul 'Til it made him old D C Em Another good lie, Another good lie, Another good lie G C Darling they all told me That they would do anything G Em Bm Climb the highest mountain Swim the ocean Do the damnedest things G C And baby then they took my heart And vanished like a memory G Em D Leaving it to time and circumstance To come deliver me Em It was another good lie C G D G Coming down like a freezing rain From a hot blue sky Em Another good lie C D Coming in like a crosstown hurricane on fire Em Another good lie C G D C Coming down on your Daddy's soul 'Til it made him old D C Em Another good lie, Another good lie, Another good lie C G Am Baby I'm just one man C G Am Em G And my world fell apart long ago A I guess I'm still in shock It shouldn't have been like that Am D I guess I still hope for deliverance G C Darling when I was your age I could do anything G Em Bm I could be a restless heart A social force Or just genuine G C And baby don't our dreams die hard In the ashes of destiny G Em D I wish that I could lay to rest The bitterness that keeps telling me Em Another good lie C G D G Coming down like a freezing rain From a hot blue sky Em Another good lie C D Coming in like a crosstown hurricane on fire Em Another good lie C G D C Coming down on your Daddy's soul 'Til it made him old D C Em Another good lie, Another good lie, Another good lie Copyright 1990 Ideola Music ASCAP
