[Chorus]
I woke up this morning with stones in my mouth
Said those were only the lies you've told me
Those are only the lies you've told me

[Verse 1]
I pulled my collar to the wind and spit them on the ground
You said those are only the lies you've told me
Those are only the lies you've told me

[Pre-Chorus]
Sat on the edge of our bed in the sun
I felt them gather on my tongue

[Chorus]
I woke up this morning with stones in my mouth
You said those are only the lies you've told me
Those are only the lies you've told me

[Verse 4]
The dirt-brown winter field
A thousand black crows cover the ground
You say those are only the lies you've told me
Those are only the lies you've told me
The autumn wind blows through the trees
As the dark leaves come tumbling down
You say those are only the lies you've told me
Those are only the lies you've told me

[Pre-Chorus]
I walk a highway washed in sun
I feel weight gather on my tongue

[Chorus]
I woke up this morning with stones in my mouth
You said those are only the lies you've told me
Those are only the lies you've told me

[Refrain]
Those are only the lies you've told me
(Only the lies you've told me)
Those are only the lies you've told me
(Only the lies you've told me)
Those are only the lies you've told me
(Only the lies you've told me)
Those are only the lies you've told me

[Outro]
I woke up this morning with stones in my mouth

Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen is a rock ‘n’ roll icon from the great state of New Jersey. Nicknamed “The Boss,” he’s known for spirited sax-powered anthems about working-class people making their way in the world. Backed by the trusty E Street Band, he’s sold more than 120 million records, won numerous awards (including 20 Grammys and an Oscar), sold out stadiums around the globe, and earned a place alongside his teenage heroes in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Although he’s a living legend who ranks among the most important artists in rock history, Springsteen wasn’t an overnight success. Around the time of his first album, 1973’s Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J., he was dismissed as just another “new Dylan"—some scruffy folk singer with a decent vocabulary looking to follow in Bob’s footsteps. In the decade that followed, Springsteen proved himself to be much more.

His breakthrough came with his third album, 1975’s Born to Run. The record hit No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and landed the singer-songwriter on the cover of both Time and Newsweek. Bruce nabbed his first chart-topping album five years later with The River, and in 1984, he went global with Born in the U.S.A., a critical and commercial smash that produced seven Top 10 singles.
