INTRO- E C#/Dbm A B E
VERSE 1:
E
There’s a look on her face, she’s starting to master
C#/Dbm A
As she carefully closes the door
E
She’s been coming home late with pre-packaged answers
C#/Dbm A
To questions she tries to a-void
PRE-CHORUS:
A/F#
Now she’s talking too fast
C#/Dbm
And I just have to ask
A B
Baby what’s all the cloak and dagger for?
CHORUS 1:
E C#/Dbm
Okay here’s the truth, I ran out of gas
A E/C# A/F#
And I didn’t call cuz I thought you'll be mad
B E C#/Dbm
So I started to walk, took an hour and a half
A E/C# A/F#
To get off that highway and fill up that can
A B E
I was hoping that you'd under-stand
VERSE 2:
E
She’s getting good with the lies, so good that you wonder
C#/Dbm A
If the rabbit in the hat tricks for real
E
She turns water into wine and I'd almost believe her
C#/Dbm A
If her eyes just for once could keep still
PRE-CHORUS:
A/F#
Now my patience wears thin
C#/Dbm
Cause she late once again
A B
Honey tell me what delayed you this time?
CHORUS 2:
E C#/Dbm
Okay here’s the truth, it’s gonna sound kinda strange
A E/C# A/F#
But I took a new way home from work for a change
B E C#/Dbm
It started out fine, till I got to route nine
A E/C# A/F#
Went an hour the wrong way before I rea-lized
A B C#/Dbm
I’m sorry I’ve ruined all our plans
A B C
I was hoping that you'd under-stand
BRIDGE
D
In there watching her secretly talking
E A
It is just about all I can bare
C D
Now I know why she’s been wearing more makeup and caring
E A
So much about changing her hair
VERSE 3:
E
The telephone vibrates on the table again
C#/Dbm A
Another damn private call coming through
E
Now she’s visibly shaking and I just feel like taking
C#/Dbm A
That phone, throwing it clear cross the room
PRE-CHORUS:
A/F#
She answers hello
C#/Dbm
A man’s voice I don’t know
A B
Says it’s time that you tell him the truth
A/F#
And I can’t take this more
C#/Dbm
Honey I’m out the door
A B
No I won’t relax, I got my suitcase all pack
A B
But what she said next, stop me dead in my tracks
CHORUS 3:
E
Okay here’s the truth,
C#/Dbm
It’s not what you think
A E/C# A/F#
The man that you heard is head of oncolo-gy
B E C#/Dbm
I’m sorry I lied, to you all of those times
A E/C# A/F#
I didn't know how to tell you I might not sur-vive
B E C#/Dbm
O-k there’s the truth, I’ve got six months to live
A E/C# A/F#
Only wanted what’s best for you and the kids
B E C#/Dbm
I promise I’ll fight, with all of my might
A E/C# A/F#
But if I lose this battle I lived a good life
A B C#/Dbm
So baby just please hold my hand
A B
And tell me that you...
E C#/Dbm A B E
Under-stand
