Squeeze - The Truth
Album - Play
Here's some rudimentary chords for an underrated track from an underrated album.
D G
I lied to you I've cheated too so what friend can I be?
A D
But still you stick through thick & thin hoping that you'll change me.
I towed the line then fell behind our love began to wane
The pressure grew & then I knew that things were not the same.
Chorus
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/squeeze/the_truth_crd.html ]
A F#m G D A
The truth is the toughest thing to explain
A F#m G D A
The truth, playing tricks with me again
G D
When the truth has to be told
F# Bm Bm/A
My Blood runs hot & Cold
G A G D Em
F G A D
The truth, is not my middle name
(I'm pretty sure that the chord flourish on 'name' is accurate to the track, but I think
it's better just sticking with D if playing on your own)
Verse 2 - same chords
You threw a rope attached with hope way down into the sea
Where Lovers swim so deeply in the tides of mystery
For what it's worth I don't deserve A girl as strong as you
You're worth much more than me I'm sure accept this as the truth
Chorus 2 - same chords
The truth, it's the toughest thing to explain
The truth, playing tricks with me again
Well the truth has to be told
My Blood runs hot & Cold
The truth, is not my middle name
(Again, here's the chords for the solo starting on 'name') G D
Em F G F G F G F
G D
When the truth has to be told
My Blood runs hot & cold
The truth is not my middle name x2
