Weight Of Lies Chords & Tabs
My second tab, it might be wrong, but it sounds pretty good
A A/G# F#m E D intro 2x
Verse is the same descending chord progression: A A/G# F#m E D 4x
Chorus is: A D Bm E, A D E 2x
That's pretty much the whole thing
Intro:
A A/G# F#m E D 2x
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_avett_brothers/weight_of_lies_crd.html ]
Verse:
A A/G#
Disappear from your hometown
F#m E D
Go and find the people that you know

Show them all your good parts
F#m E D
Leave town when bad ones start to show
A A/G#
Go and wed a woman
F#m E D
A pretty girl that you’ve never met
A A/G#
Make sure she knows you love her well
F#m E D
But don’t make any other promises
Chorus:
A D
The weight of lies will bring you down
Bm E
And follow you to every town
A D E
Cause nothing happens here that doesn’t happen there
A D
So when you run make sure you run
Bm E
To something and not away from
A D E
Cause lies don’t need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere
Verse:
I once heard the worse thing
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
But leaving out his doubt
I’m not sure I bought those words
When I was young I knew most everything
These words have never met so much to anyone
As they now mean to me
Chorus:
The weight of lies will bring you down
And follow you to every town
Cause nothing happens here that doesn’t happen there
So when you run make sure you run
To something and not away from
Cause lies don’t need an aeroplane to chase you down
