The Cold Hard Truth

(verse 1)
                      E
You don't know who I am,
                   A
I know all about you,
A                          B7
I've come to talk to you tonight,
                                E A E
About the things I've seen you do
E
I've come to set the record straight,
                                 A
I've come to shine the light on you,
A                  B7
Let me introduce myself,
                   E
I'm the cold hard truth,


(verse 2)
There's a woman we both know,
I think you know the one I mean,
She gave her heart and soul to you,
You gave her only broken dreams,
You say you're not the one to blame,
For all the heartache she's been through,
I say you're nothing but a liar,
And I'm the cold hard truth,

E7                             A
All your life that's how it's been,
                       E
Looking out for number one,
E                     B
Taking more than you give,
                        E   A - E
Movin' on when you're done,
E                           A
With her you could have it all,
                     E
A family enough to last,
E                       B7
If you had any sense at all,
                              E   A - E
You'd go and beg her to come back,


(lead chords - B - E - F)


(verse 3)
F
You think that you're a real man,
                          Bb   F
But you're nothing but a fool,
Bb                         C7
The way you run away from love,
                            F   Bb - F
The way you try to play it cool,



(verse 4)
                             F
I'm gonna say this just one time,
                       Bb
Time is running out on you,
Bb                        C7
You best remember me my friend,
                    F
I'm the cold hard truth,
F                         C
You best remember my my friend,
                     F
I am the cold hard truth,
