Lets Be Honest

[Verse]

F#m                        D     
You’d think that I would learn to
             F#m              D
 hold my tongue once and for all.
F#m                D       
But I’m growing old and still 
                   F#m           
running off my mouth like I can’t 
          D
get enough.
E              F#m           D
But save your mercy for the lost.
E               F#m            D
I don’t have time for these regrets.
    E                F#m          
And don’t you dare remind me of 
  D
the cost
E               F#m             D
‘cause how the hell could I forget?

[Verse]

F#m              D           
And I’ve gotten good at pulling 
         F#m                       
people in and pushing everyone 
  D
away.
F#m             D                
I’ve shouted words and said 
       F#m                       
hateful things that no one decent 
        D
should say.
E           F#m              D
But save forgiveness for the weak.
E            F#m            D
I’ve made it this far on my own.
E             F#m             D
And I’m not the man of your dreams
E                   F#m           
but more like the sinner that you 
 D
stone.

[Chorus]

F#m          E                   
God only knows the darker side of
   D
 me.
                  E                
The pieces of my heart I don’t want
       F#m
 you to see.
               E                   
And heaven forbid you find out who 
   D
I am
                       E        
‘cause if you knew the truth I’m 
                  F#m
terrified you’ll leave.
              E               
I’ve got to change or I’ll die 
   D
alone.
               E                 
And I don’t deserve all the grace 
                F#m
that you’ve displayed.
                      E         
I’ll nail you to the cross again 
                       D
‘cause once was not enough.
                       E           
My sinful heart feels way too gone 
        F#m
now to ever be saved.

[Verse]

E          F#m                D
So keep me close to where you are
E            F#m                D
‘cause God knows I’m prone to stray.
E            F#m             D
And write my name upon your heart
E                 F#m         D
and swear you’ll always keep me 
safe.
