Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful Chords

(ver. 1)
Paloma Faith
This is a modification of Phil Starr's tab which I would like to acknowledge as 
it's starting point... it's based on the studio version.

Intro

Dm	|G	Cadd9|Dm	Cadd9|Dm	Dm/F Dm/G|Am	C C/B|

G	G/B G/A|Dm	G|Dm	G|	

Dm                      G		Cadd9
Prophet took my hand on all souls day.
Dm              	    Cadd9     Dm Dm/F Dm/G
He preached the value of deception.
Am               C C/B G              	  G/B G/A
Changing shadows by 	shape-shifter's ruse.
Dm              G          Dm		G
Tales are never just for fools.

The court of conscience came before me.
Presented me with a heavenly angel.
He took my hand and asked me truths aside.
               [replace G with Em7 at the end of verse 1]
To his questions I reply:

Chorus:

F 			    Bb           F		Am
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Dm              Am   			Dm	Em7 
Just close your eyes and make believe.
F                     Bb           F		Am
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Dm   	     Am    Dm
I am happy to deceive you.

He stood as tall as redwood trees.
Drank tea from a seamstress thimble.
I didn't want to speak the honest truth.
So I spit out lies that aimed to soothe.

Chorus:
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Just close your eyes and make believe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
I am happy to deceive you.



Dm         Dm/C#     Dm/C       Dm/B
Sacred... lies... and telling.. tales.
      Bbm7      A7          Dm
I can be who you want me to be.
Sacred.. lies.. and..telling... tales.
I can be who you want me to be.
But do you want me?
