The Truth Chords

(ver. 1)
James Arthur
[Verse 1]
Am                G                         C      Em
It was good to be there in the bright lights, mmm
Am              G                           C      Em
But I lost good friends under the spotlight, woah
Am         G                       C     Em
Imagine if everybody knew your name
Am                           G                  C  Em
But they had nothing to say, nothing nice to say
Am                G                     C   Em
It was good to be living up the high life, woah
Am                G                     C   Em
But the comedowns harder in the headlines, woah
Am                              G        C     Em
Everybody tells you, you should play the game
Am                            G                   C    Em
But there's only you to play, there's only you to play
Am       G  C (one strum)    
Well I tried

[Chorus 1]
                   Am 
I set fire to the glory
G                 C      Em
I set fire to the dream
Em                    Am                     
I set fire to the only thing
G                     C        Em
That lead me from the streets
Am                       G                     C        Em
Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe
Em                       Am              G              C      
Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe
Em (one strum)         
The truth sets me free

[Verse 2]
Am                        G             C   Em
I broke my back to make a breakthrough, mmm
Am              G                    C    Em         
I lost my mind, look what it came to, oh
Am               G                          C      Em             
I had to lose it all so I could understand, woah
Am           G                         C (one strum)
I was just a boy in the shadow of a man

[Chorus 2]
                   Am 
I set fire to the glory
G                 C      Em
I set fire to the dream
Em                    Am                     
I set fire to the only thing
G                     C        Em
That lead me from the streets
Am                       G                     C        Em
Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe
Em                       Am              G              C      
Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe
Em                Am     G    C   Em
The truth sets me free
Em                    Am   G   C   Em
Oh, the truth sets me free

[Bridge]
                   Am 
I set fire to the glory
G                 C      Em
I set fire to the dream
Em                    Am                     
I set fire to the only thing
G                     C        Em
That lead me from the streets

[Chorus]
Am                       G                     C        Em
Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe
Em                       Am              G              C      
Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe
Em                Am     G    C   Em
The truth sets me free
Em                    Am   G   C   Em
Oh, it sets me free

[Outro]
Em                   Am  G  C  Em
Oh, the truth sets me
Oh, it sets me free
Em                    Am  G  C  Em
Oh, the truth sets me free
It sets me free
Em                    Am  G  C  Em
Oh, the truth sets me free
Oh, it sets me free
Em                    Am  G  C  Em
Oh, the truth sets me free
Oh, it sets me free
