Introduction:
C C7 F
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
G7 C G7
You asked me not to call you on the phone
C C7 F
But there's somethin' I wanted to tell you
G7 C
So I wrote it in the words of this song
F C F C
Well I guess you know you took me by surprise
G7 F C F C
When you told me that you'd broken all the rules
F C F C
And the future felt as empty as your eyes
G7 C C7
When I realized how far I was from you
F C
But they tell me that the truth will set you free
G7 F C C7
From the sad confusion of your lies
F C F
And it led me to a side of you that I'd refused to see
C G7 F
So I guess it's been a blessing in disguise
C F C F C
So there's nothing left to keep us holding on now
G7 F C F C
To the mystery we used to be before
F C F C
What we ever shared together there is gone now
G7 C C7
And what might have been don't matter anymore
F C
But they tell me that the truth will set you free
G7 F C C7
From the sad confusion of your lies
F C F
And it led me to a side of you that I'd refused to see
C G7 F
So I guess it's been a blessing in disguise
