Tom: Em
Em D G
If there's poison in this cup
C
She still offers it up
Em D G
Then she tells me it's your life
C
And darling it's your luck
Em D G
Ain't so desperate to be liked
C
Or to be loved
Em D G
Ain't craved a validating mind
C
She don't need your love
[Chorus]
G D Em
London don't lie
C
London don't lie
G D Em
London don't lie
C
Don't like no no
[Verse]
Em D G
She don't dress the ugly truth
C
To make her white teeth shine
Em D G
She don't lull me in a fire
C
And tell me I'll be fine
Em D G C
She pulls back the curtain clears the smoke and shows me
Em D G C
A mirror standing clear to see myself the way she sees
[Chorus]
G D Em
London don't lie
C
London don't lie
G D Em
London don't lie
C
Don't like no no
G D Em
London don't lie
C
Don't waste my high
G D Em
London don't lie
C
No don't lie no no
[Bridge]
Em D
She swallows the unsteady and spits you out
G C
Grab at you already, destroy your clout
Em D
'Cos you're unsteady, you're a little unsteady
G C
Little unsteady, you're a little unsteady
Em D
Won't tell you that she loves you in all your light
G C
She smells the fear on you dressed up to the nines
Em D
'Cos you're unsteady, a little unsteady
G C
Little unsteady, you're a little unsteady
[Bridge 2]
Em D
I've seen the smiling faces
G C
Trading places, I just don't buy
Em D
I've tasted lust and fucked the words
G C
The feigning wise impart
Em D
I've walked the earth in search of
G C
Something I was looking for
Em D
Only to come home and find
G C
My heartbeat in her arms
[Chorus]
G D Em
London don't lie
C
London don't lie
G D Em
London don't lie
C
Don't like no no
G D Em
London don't lie
C
Don't waste my high
G D Em
London don't lie
C
No don't lie no no
