By and by girl
We'll get over
The things we've done
And the things we said
But not just now when
I can't remember
Exactly what it was
I thought we had

'Cause I waited so long girl and I came so far

To find out you're not always who you say you are

And there's a star in the book of liars by your name
And there's a star in the book of liars by your name
Santa Claus came home
Late last night
Drunk on Christmas wine
Fell down hard out in the driveway
Hung his bag out on the laundry line
Ab(add9) Ab2/C Gb2/Bb Ab2
You know he’s got a Cobra Gunship for his golden boy
Ab(add9) Ebm7 Dbmaj7 Fbmaj7/13
And there's a Hello Kitty for his pride and joy
Ab(add9) Dbmaj7
And a silver star in the book of liars by your name
They hung a star in the book of liars by your name

Stars imploding
The long night passing
Electrons dancing in the
Frozen crystal dawn
Here's one left stranded
At the zero crossing
With a hole in its half-life
Left to carry on
Ab(add9) Ab2/C Gb2/Bb Ab2
But then the world's much larger than it looks today

And if my bad luck ever blows me back this way

Then I'll just look in my book of liars for your name
I'll just look in the book of liars for your name

That’s helpful……the vagaries of naming SD chords especially ones played by several instruments. And complicating matters is I’m a guitarist with a mere 6 strings to work with…..so generally prefer to raise up to A.
such a forlorn song/lyric of a lover’s betrayal.….. “if my bad luck ever blows me back this way, I’ll just look in my Book of Liars for your name……”
sheer poetry. Appreciate your posts
Thanks Matthew…….can you clarify the notation for Fbmaj7/13?
