Lucinda Williams – Ugly Truth (Guitar)

G                                Am
Hide your background, hide your fame

           C            G
Hide your given middle name

                                  Am
Swallow your pride, swallow your pills

          C              G
In your house up in the hills

G                               Am
Leave your husband, leave your wife

         C                  G
Keep on runnin' your whole life

                           Am
Sweep your dirt under the rug

          C                  G
Fix your hurt with a little love

           C
From the cradle to the grave

           G
You will always be a slave

        Am            C             G
To the quiet darkness of your memories

                C
And that's the truth my friend

          G
The ugly truth my friend

          Am              C
I've got proof my friend

                G
And that's the truth

G                         Am
Keep your secrets to yourself

           C                     G
Keep your paperbacks up on the shelf

                               Am
Burn your bridges, burn your friends

          C                G
Blow em kisses and make amends

G                               Am
Take the high road or take the low

            C                      G
No one but you and God will ever know

                                  Am
And you might play rough, win or lose

        C                        G
Either way love, you'll get the blues

           C
From the cradle to the grave

           G
You will always be a slave

        Am            C             G
To the quiet darkness of your memories

                C
And that's the truth my friend

          G
The ugly truth my friend

          Am              C
I've got proof my friend

                G
And that's the truth
