Capo 5th Fret
[Intro]
C C/B Am Dm F C
[Verse 1]
C C/B Am F C G
I haven’t told myself the truth since the first night you were gone
C C/B Am Dm F C
I’d like to think I was living easy, and love was mostly living all alone
C C/B Am F C G
Maybe it’s the wind blowing us together, maybe it’s the world blowing me away
C C/B Am Dm F C
Maybe the tall trees bow down before us pleading for a lonely heart to stay
[Chorus]
F C
Truth be told, the odds are stacked against us
E7 Am
Truth be told, they often always are
F C C/B
Unless you really care about me, don’t go up the stairs without
Am E7 Am G F
The boy that let you drive him in your mama’s beat up car
G C
And don’t forget the one that lives too far
[Break]
C C/B Am Dm F C
[Verse 2]
C C/B Am F C G
Some folks make something out of nothing, some people have to cry too long
C C/B Am Dm F C
While others wait beside the window wondering why the wind would blow so strong
C C/B Am F C G
Now I’ll admit I’m feeling cold and naked, just like I’m standing in the rain
C C/B Am Dm F C
With nothing left out here to hide behind, and I wonder if you feel the same
[Chorus]
F C
Truth be told, the odds are stacked against us
E7 Am
Truth be told, they often always are
F C C/B
Unless you really care about me, don’t go up the stairs without
Am E7 Am G F
The boy that let you drive him in your mama’s beat up car
G C
And don’t forget the one that lives too far
