INTRO-  E   C#/C#m   A   B   E



VERSE 1:

          E			    
There’s a look on her face, she’s starting to master

       C#/C#m               A
As she carefully closes the door

           E			   
She’s been coming home late with pre-packaged answers 

   C#/C#m                   A
To questions she tries to a-void



PRE-CHORUS:

          A/F#
Now she’s talking too fast

      C#/C#m
And I just have to ask  

     A                               B
Baby what’s all the cloak and dagger for?



CHORUS 1:

                E                   C#/C#m
Okay here’s the truth, I ran out of gas

             A          E/C#              A/F#
And I didn’t call cuz I thought you'll be mad

     B          E                        C#/C#m
So I started to walk, took an hour and a half

                A           E/C#         A/F#
To get off that highway and fill up that can

      A                 B     E
I was hoping that you'd under-stand 



VERSE 2:

              E
She’s getting good with the lies, so good that you wonder 

       C#/C#m                       A
If the rabbit in the hat tricks for real

          E			    
She turns water into wine and I'd almost believe her

       C#/C#m                        A
If her eyes just for once could keep still



PRE-CHORUS:

       A/F#
Now my patience wears thin

          C#/C#m
Cause she late once again

      A	                             B
Honey tell me what delayed you this time?



CHORUS 2:

                E                             C#/C#m
Okay here’s the truth, it’s gonna sound kinda strange

                 A             E/C#       A/F#
But I took a new way home from work for a change

   B           E                         C#/C#m
It started out fine, till I got to route nine

                       A          E/C#   A/F#
Went an hour the wrong way before I rea-lized

    A          B              C#/C#m
I’m sorry I’ve ruined all our plans

      A           B           C
I was hoping that you'd under-stand 



BRIDGE

                      D
In there watching her secretly talking

      E                    A
It is just about all I can bare

           C                           D
Now I know why she’s been wearing more makeup and caring

   E                       A  
So much about changing her hair



VERSE 3:

    E				
The telephone vibrates on the table again

        C#/C#m	                  A
Another damn private call coming through

          E			  
Now she’s visibly shaking and I just feel like taking

     C#/C#m                             A
That phone, throwing it clear cross the room



PRE-CHORUS:

    A/F#
She answers hello

        C#/C#m
A man’s voice I don’t know

          A                          B
Says it’s time that you tell him the truth

            A/F#
And I can’t take this more

      C#/C#m
Honey I’m out the door

   A                       B
No I won’t relax, I got my suitcase all pack

             A                             B
But what she said next, stop me dead in my tracks 



CHORUS 3:

                E
Okay here’s the truth,

                  C#/C#m 
It’s not what you think

                 A                E/C#   A/F#
The man that you heard is head of oncolo-gy

    B       E                         C#/C#m
I’m sorry I lied, to you all of those times

                     A          E/C#          A/F#
I didn't know how to tell you I might not sur-vive

  B             E                             C#/C#m
O-k there’s the truth, I’ve got six months to live

                   A        E/C#        A/F#
Only wanted what’s best for you and the kids

  B            E                     C#/C#m
I promise I’ll fight, with all of my might

                   A        E/C#         A/F#
But if I lose this battle I lived a good life

   A         B              C#/C#m
So baby just please hold my hand

    A            B 
And tell me that you...

      E	         C#/C#m    A    B    E
Under-stand
