E                              A 
Since I was a child I tried to be what I am not 
B                              E 
I lied and I enjoyed it all my life 
E                         A 
I lied to my dear mother, to my sisters and my brother 
        B                           E 
Now I'm lyin' to my children and my wife 

    E                  A 
Big hat no cattle, big head no brain 
    B                             E 
Big snake no rattle, I'll forever remain 
    E                A             F#m 
Big hat no cattle, I knew from the start 
    B                             E 
Big boat no paddle, big ballet no heart
 
 
E                           A 
Can't remember why I do it, or maybe I can 
B                                   E 
An honest man these days is hard to find 
  E                            A           F#m 
I only know we're living in an unforgiving land 
         B                                  E 
A little lie can buy some real big piece of mind 
 
 
BRIDGE: 
G#m                      C#m 
All the times I wondered what I might have become 
B                             E 
Had a buckled down and really tried 
G#m                                           C#m 
But when it came down to the wire I called my family to my side 
F#7                                            B 
I stood up straight, threw my head back, and I lied lied lied

Big hat no cattle, I knew from the start

Big guns no battle, big ballet no heart
