Truth Be Told chords by John Moreland

Intro:

Em  Dm  C  Am  (x2)



Verse 1:
Em          Dm
January eyes fixed on iridescent lies
C          Am
Truth be told, it's no surprise
   Em             Dm         Am
The saints came self-appointed, said they were anointed
  G           F
And time is just a faded sign
   Em               Dm
The world was always ending, it was good in the beginning
  C        Am
But I don't know how far this goes
     Em              Dm       Am
Saw you standin' in a pose, wearin' someone else's clothes
G         F      C  F  Em  Dm
I don't know how far this goes

Verse 2:
  G        Am
Committing sabotage, out in the garage
Em             F
Turn it up and let it go, chase that old mirage
    G            Am
At the end of our rope, or some other tired trope
Em           F
Raised in the glow of a television show

Chorus:
C              Am           C/E
 But you don't owe me anything
I don't owe you anything
           F
No, it don't mean a thing
G           Am
I don't owe you anything, you don't owe me anything
C/E          F
 No, it don't mean a thing

Verse 3:
C/E             Dm
I guess you can't see
I'm sweepin' up debris
C            Am
All for your miserable cause
C/E                Dm
Left to my devices, payin' heavy prices
C/E    F
Empty as I ever was

Interlude:
G  C  Am  C/E  F

G  Am  C/E  F


Chorus:
C              Am           C/E
 But you don't owe me anything
I don't owe you anything
           F
No, it don't mean a thing
G           Am
I don't owe you anything, you don't owe me anything
C/E          F
 No, it don't mean a thing

Interlude:
G  C  Am  C/E  F

G  Am  C/E  F
