This is a modification of Phil Starr's tab which I would like to acknowledge as it's starting point... it's based on the studio version. Intro Dm |G Cadd9|Dm Cadd9|Dm Dm/F Dm/G|Am C C/B| G G/B G/A|Dm G|Dm G|
Dm                      G		Cadd9
Prophet took my hand on all souls day.

He preached the value of deception.

Am               C C/B G              	  G/B G/A
Changing shadows by 	shape-shifter's ruse.

Dm              G          Dm		G
Tales are never just for fools.
The court of conscience came before me. Presented me with a heavenly angel. He took my hand and asked me truths aside. [replace G with Em7 at the end of verse 1] To his questions I reply: Chorus:
F 			    Bb           F		Am
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Dm              Am   			Dm	Em7 
Just close your eyes and make believe.

F                     Bb           F		Am
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Dm   	     Am    Dm
I am happy to deceive you.
He stood as tall as redwood trees. Drank tea from a seamstress thimble. I didn't want to speak the honest truth. So I spit out lies that aimed to soothe. Chorus: Do you want the truth or something beautiful? Just close your eyes and make believe Do you want the truth or something beautiful? I am happy to deceive you.
Dm         Dm/C#     Dm/C       Dm/B
Sacred... lies... and telling.. tales.
