Oh, the trouble with the truth is
It’s always the same old thing
So hard to forget
So impossible for me to change

Every time I try to fight it[Am-G-]
I know I’ll be left to blame
Oh, the trouble with the truth is
It’s always the same old thing

N.C. G
And the trouble with the truth is
It’s just what I need to hear
A-ringing so right
Deep down inside my ear

And it’s everything I want
And it’s everything I fear
Oh, the trouble with the truth is
It’s just what I need to hear

BRIDGE:
Yeah, it ruined the taste of the sweetest lies
C ~ Am
Burned through my best alibis
Every sin that I deny

Keeps hanging ‘round my door
Oh, the trouble with the truth is
It always begs for more

CHORUS:
N.C. C F
That’s the trouble (that’s the trouble with the truth)
Trouble with the truth (that’s the trouble, that’s the trouble)
That’s the trouble (that’s the trouble with the truth)
Trouble with the truth (that’s the trouble, trouble with the truth)

N.C. G
And the trouble with the truth is
It just won’t let me rest
I run and hide
But there’s always another test

And I know that it won’t let me be[Am-G-]
‘Til I’ve given it my best
The trouble with the truth is
It just won’t let me rest

CHORUS:
N.C. C F
That’s the trouble (that’s the trouble with the truth)
Trouble with the truth (that’s the trouble, that’s the trouble)
That’s the trouble (that’s the trouble with the truth)
Trouble with the truth (that’s the trouble, that’s the trouble)

CHORUS:
That’s the trouble (that’s the trouble with the truth)
Trouble with the truth (that’s the trouble, that’s the trouble)
That’s the trouble (that’s the trouble with the truth)
N.C.
Trouble with the truth
