Intro: E--
VerseE
The truth about love comes at 3am
You wake up f*cked up and you grab a pen
A
And you say to yourself
E
I'm gonna figure it out, I'm gonna crack that code
Gonna break it break it down
B
I'm tired of all these questions
A
And, now it's just annoying
E
Cause, no one has the answer
So I guess it's up to me
E
To find the truth about love
As it comes, and it goes
A strange fascination with his lips and toes
A
Morning breath, bedroom eyes on a smiling face
E
Sheet marks rug burn, and a sugar glaze
BA
The shock and the awe that can eat you raw
E
If the truth about love
Chorus:
E
I think it just may be perfect
You're the person of my dreams
A
I never ever ever ever been this happy
E
But now something has changed
BA
And The Truth About Love is it's all a lie
E
I thought you were the one, and I hate goodbyes
(Chord-less/Palm-mute)
Oh, you want the truth?
E
The truth about love is it's nasty and salty
It's the regret in the morning, it's the smelling of armpits
A
It's wings, and songs
And trees, and birds
E
It's all the poetry that you ever heard
BA
Terror coup d'etat, life line forget-me-nots
E
It's the hunt and the kill
The schemes and the plots
E
The truth about love is it's blood, and it's guts
Purebreds and mutts
Sandwiches without the crust
A
It takes your breath, cause it leaves a scar
E
But those untouched never got never got very far
B
It's rage and it's hate
A
And a sick twist of fate
E
And that's the truth about love
The truth about love
(Repeat Chorus)
BA
Oh you can lose your breath and
BA
Oh, you can shoot a gun and
BABA
Convince you're the only one that's ever felt this way before
BA
It hurts inside the hurt within and
BA
It folds together pocket thin and
BA
It's whispered by the angels' lips and
B
It can turn you into a son of a bitch man
(Chord-less)
The truth, the truth, the truth about love is
Truth, the truth, the truth about love is
Truth, the truth, the truth about love is
(Repeat Chorus)
E--
Truth about love!
