Three Chords And The Truth
<span>D
On a highway bound for nowhere
I ran my fingers through my tangled hair
<span>G <span>D
As I pulled in for another tank of freedom
With a hundred miles behind me
And a million more to go
<span>E <span>A
I was tryin' to put some distance between us
<span>D
I turned on the radio
And a voice came over sweet and low
<span>G <span>D
And I didn't know the tears were gonna start
<span>G
But what amazed me even more
<span>D <span>G
Is I'd never heard that song before
<span>D <span>A <span>D
But somehow I knew each word by heart
Chorus:
<span>G <span>D
And I don't know why, I don't know how
<span>A
But with his song he turned my life and
<span>D
This old car around
<span>D <span>G <span>D <span>G
Just when I thought I was over you-oooh
<span>G <span>D <span>A <span>D
He changed my mind with three chords and the truth
<span>D
Found a pay phone at a truck stop
Said a prayer as the quater dropped
<span>G <span>D
Oh, please be home, I know that I was wrong
<span>G
Honey, don't talk, just listen
<span>D <span>G
I think I found what I was missin'
<span>D <span>A <span>D
In a song I heard tonight on the radio
