Truth Be Told
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: B
[Intro]
B F# G#m F# E F#
[Verse 1]
B F# G#m F# E F#
Lie number one: You''''re supposed to have it all together
B F#
And when they ask how you''''re doing
G#m F# E F#
Just smile and tell them \\"Never better\\"
B F# G#m F# E F#
Lie number two: Everybody''''s life is perfect except yours
B F# G#m
So keep your messes and your wounds and your secrets safe
F# E F#
With you behind closed doors
[Pre-Chorus]
E F# G#m E
But truth be told, the truth is rarely told
[Chorus]
B F# G#m F#
I say, \\"I''''m fine, yeah, I''''m fine, oh, I''''m fine, hey, I''''m fine\\"
E F#
But I''''m not, I''''m broken
B F# G#m F#
And when it''''s out of control I say it''''s under control
E F#
But it''''s not and You know it
E F#
I don''''t know why it''''s so hard to admit it
G#m F# E
When being honest is the only way to fix it
B F#
There''''s no failure, no fall
G#m F# E
There''''s no sin You don''''t already know
F# B F# G#m F# E F#
So let the truth be told
[Verse 2]
B F#
There''''s a sign on the door, says,
G#m F# E F#
\\"Come as you are\\" but I doubt it
B F#
''''Cause if we lived like that was true,
G#m F# E F#
Every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
B F# G#m
But didn''''t You say church should look
F# E F#
More like a hospital?
B F# G#m F#
A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred,
E F#
And the prodigals like me
[Pre-Chorus]
E F# G#m E
But truth be told, the truth is rarely told
F#
Oh am I the only one who says:
[Chorus]
B F# G#m F#
\\"I''''m fine, yeah, I''''m fine, oh, I''''m fine, hey, I''''m fine\\"
E F#
But I''''m not, I''''m broken
B F# G#m F#
And when it''''s out of control I say it''''s under control
E F#
But it''''s not and You know it
E F#
I don''''t know why it''''s so hard to admit it
G#m F# E
When being honest is the only way to fix it
B F#
There''''s no failure, no fall
G#m F# E
There''''s no sin You don''''t already know
F# E
So let the truth be told
[Bridge]
F# G#m
Can I really stand here unashamed
B E
Knowing that Your love for me won''''t change
F#
Oh God, if that''''s really true
B F# G#m F# E F#
Then let the truth be told
[Chorus]
B F# G#m F#
I say, \\"I''''m fine, yeah, I''''m fine, oh, I''''m fine, hey, I''''m fine\\"
E F#
But I''''m not, I''''m broken
B F# G#m F#
And when it''''s out of control I say it''''s under control
E F#
But it''''s not and You know it
E F#
I don''''t know why it''''s so hard to admit it
G#m F# E
When being honest is the only way to fix it
B F#
There''''s no failure, no fall
G#m F# E
There''''s no sin You don''''t already know
F#
Yeah I know
B F#
There''''s no failure, no fall
G#m F# E
There''''s no sin You don''''t already know
F#
So let the truth be told
