Matthew West - Truth Be Told Chords

[Intro]
 
G    D    Em    D       C       D
 
[Verse 1]
G          D              Em          D          C
Lie number one you're supposed to have it all together
D             G               D
And when they ask how you're doing
     Em                  D          C         D
Just smile and tell them, "Never better"
G                D                Em        D       C           D
Lie number 2 everybody's life is perfect except yours
               G                  D
So keep your messes and your wounds
           Em                D           C              Dsus4
And your secrets safe with you behind closed doors
 
[Chorus]
G           D
Truth be told
    Em                   D
The truth is rarely told, now
 
            G            D          Em             D          C
I say I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
     D
I'm broken
              G           D              Em         D           C
And when it's out of control I say it's under control but it's not
         D
And you know it
     Em                              D
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
             Em             D           C
When being honest is the only way to fix it
              G          D
There's no failure, no fall
           Em               D    C
There's no sin you don't already know
             D         G
So let the truth be told
 
[Verse 2]
           G            D          Em        D              C           D
There's a sign on the door, says, "Come as you are" but I doubt it
              G                 D             Em           D             C         D
'Cause if we lived like it was true, every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
       G               D                 Em               C          Dsus4
But didn't you say church should look more like a hospital
         G             D           Em           D                C
A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred and the prodigals
  Dsus4
Like me
 
[Chorus]
    G           D
Well truth be told
    Em                 D
The truth is rarely told
            C
Oh am I the only one
              G             D          Em              D            C
Who says I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
   D
I'm broken
               G           D             Em         D           C
And when it's out of control I say it's under control but it's not
       D
And you know it
   Em                              D
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
           Em             D           C
When being honest is the only way to fix it
           G             D
There's no failure, no fall
           Em            D          C
There's no sin you don't already know
            Dsus4
So let the truth be told
 
[Bridge]
     Dsus4          D           G
Can I really stand here unashamed
                     Em                C
Knowin' that your love for me won't change?
            D
Oh God if that's really true
      G   D    Em   D   C       D
Then let the truth be told
 
[Chorus]
         G           D           Em          D               C
I say I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
     D
I'm broken
             G           D             Em            D         C
And when it's out of control I say it's under control but it's not
        D
And you know it
  Em                             D
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
     Em              D                  C
When being honest is the only way to fix it
           G            D
There's no failure, no fall
        Em             D           C
There's no sin you don't already know
 
 
 
[Outro}
   D
Yeah I know
          G              D
There's no failure, no fall
          Em           D           C
There's no sin you don't already know
            D
So let the truth be told
