Truth Be Told Lyrics & Tabs by Harlequin Jones
Truth Be Told
guitar chords lyrics
Kid look, i never knew
what happened to them would happen to you
i never claimed to be right
i didn't see you, you damned deer in the headlights
Man, lay it all down, spit it all out
did the cat get yer tongue?
did you swallow it down, did i rip it right out
as i fingered that gun
Why bother to kick the dog when he's down
if the the cat's in the bag
and the mice all left town
It's all dramatics here on out
Truth be told
i could never keep up
you knew from the start
Truth be told
i could never keep up
you knew from the start
i was gonna give up
yeah, you read me right
yeah, I'm THAT type
you set yourself up for the let down
so what was the shock when you found me out?
Don't play the victim
guilt trippin' wont work on me
they can talk all they want
what do i care honestly?
why bother to kick the dog when he's down
if the cat's in the bag, and the mice all left town
its all dramatics here on out
if there was a last page, it would state
in clear bold print for you and i to see
i wasn't thinking
but DAMN that boy could sing
Remember before i left
I returned your Bukowski book
you claimed i was one step away
from being the trash he'd take back to his place
but i wont say sorry
cuz apologies all sound the same
and I'm neither ashamed, nor am i willing to change
in the first place
Truth be told
i always thought you deserved better
than what I'm not
Truth be told,
i always thought, you deserved better
someone sweeter
oh, just forget her
Truth be told
i truly believe
you couldn't get any better, so i had to leave
you were too good for me
You were too good for me
