Intro
[D] [D7] [G] [D]
[D] [Bm] [A] [D] [D]
Verse 1
I [D]said it was over, I [G]said we were [D]through
I [D]said when I [Bm]left, I was [Em]done loving [A]you
But I'm [D]fighting a feeling that [G]can't be [D]denied
So [D]forget what I [Bm]told you, the [A]truth is I [D]lied
Verse 2
I know [D]you weren't [D/F#]expecting this [G]visit from [D]me
With my [D]hat in my [Bm]hand and my [Em]heart on my [A]sleeve
I've [D]stopped my [D7]pretending and I've [G]swallowed my [D]pride
I [D]came here to [Bm]tell ya, the [A]truth is I [D]lied[D7]
Chorus
The [G]truth is I'm just not as [D]strong as I thought[D/C#]
This [Bm]battle is harder than any [A]war that we've fought
[D] I [G]said I could just push your [D]memory [Bm]aside
And I [D]meant when I[Bm] said it, but the [A]truth is I [D]lied
[D] [A]
Bridge
[B]Is it [C]asking too [G/B]much to [D]forget and [D][D/F#]forgive?[D/A]
[C]Dying for [G/B]your love is [Asus4]no way to [A]live
Chorus
[D]And the [G]truth is I'm just not as [D]strong as I thought
[D/C#]This [Bm]battle is harder than any [A]war that we've fought
[D] I [G]said I could just push your [D]memory [Bm]aside
And I [D]meant it when I[Bm] said it, but the [A]truth is I [D]lied
Oh, I [D]meant it when I[Bm] said it, but the [A]truth is I lied[D]
