And if you look for truthfulness you might just as well be blind
Eb A7 Dsus4 D Dsus4
It always seems to be so hard to give

[Chorus]

Ebmaj7 F7 D/F# Gm7 F


Honest - y is such a lonely word
Eb F Eb/Bb Bb D
Everyone is so untrue-ue
Ebmaj7 F7 D/F# Gm7 F
Honest - y is hardly ever heard
Eb F Eb/F Bb F9sus
But mostly what I need from you

[Verse 2]

Bb Eb F Dm7
I can always find someone to say they sympathize
Eb Gm7 Am7 Am7 Cm7 F F7
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
Bb Csus4 C F/C A/C# Dm
But I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies
Eb A7 Dsus4 D
All I want is someone to believe

[Chorus]
