The Oh Hellos – The Truth Is A Cave (Guitar)

C              G
Well I was young 

C        G        Am Em
i was young and naive

C       G
as I was told, 

C          G        Am Em
as I was told so I believed

D     Em                      G           C        Am  Em         C
and I was told there's only one road that leads you home

          D                 Am
and the truth was a cave on the mountainside

           Em             D                 C
and I'd seek it out until the day I died

C      G
I was bound 

C       G             Am  Em
I was bound and determined

C            G
to be the child 

C            G            Am  Em
to be the child that you wanted

D         Em          C        G           Em                  C
but I was blind to every sign you left for me to find

         Em                      Am             Em           C
and the truth became a tool that I held in my hand

Em                    D                C
I wielded it, but I did not understand

 C     G
I got tired 

C              G                   D          G
of giving more than you gave to me

C           G        C           G           C        G
and I desired a truth I wouldn't have to seek

 D           C          Em              C         D        C
but in the silence I heard you calling out to me
