Slipknot - A Liar’s Funeral

[Intro]
Em D

[Verse 1]
Em
A season at an end
D
A harvest of seclusion and regret
Em
The burning can begin
D
A period of ash is what you get
Em
The quiet is a curse
D
But my respect was shown to you by force
Em
Another day too late
D
Another neck too eager for the rope

[Refrain]
Bm F#m
Liar
Bm F#m
Liar

[Verse 2]
Em
Yesterday was hard
D
Tomorrow’s just a promise of the same
Em
When friends have all subscribed
D
To spitting on the ground to say my name
Em
Fire on the ice
D
December in the summer kills the heart
Em
Your hate is no surprise
D
I guess I have to die to play my part

[Refrain]
Bm F#m
Liar
Bm F#m
Liar

[Verse 3]
Bm F#m
You close your eyes and join the blind
Bm A
Slit your wrists for peace of mind
Bm F#m
Turn your back and show us the truth
Bm A
There’s only one way to remember it for you
Bm F#m
Burn, burn, burn the liar (Liar)
Bm A
Burn, burn, burn the liar (Liar)
Bm F#m
Burn, burn, burn the liar (Liar)
Bm A
Burn, burn, burn the liar

[Chorus]
G F#m
(Hold the weight)

Never trust the one beside you
G F#m
(Carried away)

You know just as much as I do
G F#m
(Hold the weight)

Do it all for what you really love
G F#m
(Carried away)

Use you up until they’ve had enough
G F#m
(Hold the weight)

Never trust the one beside you
G F#m
(Carried away)

You know just as much as I do
G F#m
(Hold the weight)

Do it all for what you really love
G F#m
(Carried away)

Use you up until they’ve had enough

[Post-Chorus]
Bm F#m
Clench your teeth and tighten your grip
Bm A
Stand up straight, don’t let it slip
Bm F#m
Burn, burn, burn the liar (Liar)
Bm F#m
Burn, burn, burn the liar

[Bridge]
Bm F#m
True victims and survivors learn to make war
Bm F#m
Don’t want to be the sad man singing anymore
Bm F#m
I did it all wrong so I’d get it all right
Bm F#m
We’re wasting all the candles, the dead need no light

[Outro]

Bm F#m
Liar
Bm F#m
Liar
Bm F#m
Liar
