The Truth chords by Ashley Monroe

Chords with lyrics

No capo


 D MajorD           G+G
Tell them all I'm on vacation

 D MajorD           G+G
Say I went to visit friends

 D MajorD             G+G
That you ain't heard a thing from me in quite a while

 D MajorD               G+G
When they ask you where I've been

 E minorEm
Tell them I'm out on the West Coast

 G+G
Where it don't ever rain

E minorEm              G*
And that I'm probably doing fine


 G+G                D MajorD    A augmentedA
Just don't tell them I've gone crazy yeah

 G+G                D MajorD    A augmentedA
That I'm still strung out over you

G+G              B minorBm (unbar for decending bassline)
Tell them anythin' you want to
B minorBm (unbarred)         G+G
Just don't tell 'em all the truth
                E minorEm    A augmentedA
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth


Same as V1/bridge

Tell 'em all I'm out in Vegas
Blowin' every dollar I ever made
Tell 'em that I must be into somethin' bad for me
'Cause I sure lost a lot of weight

Tell 'em I'm out on the road
With some old rock and roll band
Living like a gypsy can

 G+G                D MajorD    A augmentedA
Just don't tell 'em I've gone crazy

 G+G                D MajorD    A augmentedA
That I'm still strung out over you

G+G              B minorBm (unbar for decending bassline)
Tell 'em anythin' you want to
B minorBm (unbarred)         G+G
Just don't tell 'em all the truth
                E minorEm    A augmentedA
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth

 G+G                   D MajorD
The truth is that I'm askin' you to lie

        A augmentedA           G+G
And we both know that it ain't right

 G+G
But if you ever loved me

B minorBm         B minorBm (unbarred) G+G
Please have some mercy on me
 A augmentedA         G+G    D MajorD
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


G+G  D MajorD  A augmentedA

 G+G             B minorBm
Tell 'em anything you want to

B minorBm (unbarred)         G+G
Just don't tell 'em all the truth
 G+G               E minorEm   A augmentedA
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth

        D MajorD   G+G
I still need you

 G+G           D MajorD
Yeah, that's the truth

 G+G        D MajorD   A augmentedA
I still love you


 G+G        D MajorD   A augmentedA   G+G
Baby, that's the truth


Finish on D MajorD :)
