You Lie
You Lie by Reba McEntire Capo: 1st fret
Intro: F#m D E, F#m D E, A (see note)
Note: On the intro, there is a type of suspended chord used after the A,
that I am not sure how to notate, so Ill just draw it out for ya.
You would strum the A chord in the intro once, then in rapid succession:
A, Chord A, A, Chord A, A (pause), then A, Chord B, A, Chord B, A .
This would be done with the regular timing of a normal A suspended chord,
where you just place then lift your 4th finger quickly, but the 4th finger
is in a different spot. If you listen to the intro in the song, you'll hear
how it goes, and this is a pretty close rendition. Pardon my ignorance on
the names of the two chords :)
