Ashley Monroe- The Truth. This is almost exactly how Ashley plays this live, minus a few fancy bits. 

No capo



D                    G
Tell them all I'm on vacation
D                   G
Say I went to visit friends
D                       G  
That you ain't heard or seen from me in quite a while
D                           G
When they ask you where I've been

Em
Tell them I'm out on the West Coast
G
Where it don't ever rain
Em                           G*
And that I'm probably doing fine


G                             D      A
Just don't tell them I've gone crazy yeah
G                             D     A
That I'm still strung out over you
G                           Bm (unbar for decending bassline)
Tell them anythin' you want to
Bm (unbarred)                 G
Just don't tell 'em all the truth
                               Em     A
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth


Same as V1/bridge 

Tell 'em all I'm out in Vegas
Blowin' every dollar I ever made
Tell 'em that I must be into somethin' bad for me
'Cause I sure lost a lot of weight

Tell 'em I'm out on the road
With some old rock and roll band
Living like a gypsy can

G                             D      A
Just don't tell 'em I've gone crazy
G                             D     A
That I'm still strung out over you
G                           Bm (unbar for decending bassline)
Tell 'em anythin' you want to
Bm (unbarred)                 G
Just don't tell 'em all the truth
                               Em     A
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth

G                                   D
The truth is that I'm askin' you to lie
              A                    G
And we both know that it ain't right
G
But if you ever loved me
Bm                 Bm (unbarred) G 
Please have some mercy on me
A               G      D
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

G   D    A

G                        Bm
Tell 'em anything you want to
Bm (unbarred)                 G
Just don't tell 'em all the truth
G                            Em   A
Yeah, don't tell 'em all the truth
               D    G
I still need you
G                    D
Yeah, that's the truth
G              D    A
I still love you

G             D   A    G 
Baby, that's the truth 

Finish on D :)
