D                          C#7      D
Be sure it's true when you say, "I love you"
       F#7     G   B7  Em
It's a sin to tell a lie
  A7                         D
Millions of hearts have been broken
 E7                             Em A7
Just because these words were spo---ken

 D                 C#7        D
I love you, yes I do, I love you
        F#7       G     B7  Em
If you break my heart I'll die
        G         Gm           D     F#7    B7
So be sure it's true when you say, "I love you"
        Em       A7    D
It's a sin to tell a lie

   D                       C#7
Cross my heart, I hope to die
       D
I'll never, never, never tell another white lie
    F#7                                   G
Took a little girl out on a date last night
                B7                             Em
Next to her Gramma Gerty would have looked alright

  D                                 C#7
Now I'm between the devil and the deep blue sea
          D
Cause I said "Baby you look good to me"
    F#7                               B7
I told her I loved her and oh how I lied
              Em                           D
Now she's getting set to be my blushing bride

 D                         C#7       D
If she leads me to the altar, I'm sunk
     F#7                 B7           Em
Cause I cannot tell the preacher I was drunk
    A7                                    D
So Dear Lord have mercy on a no account sinner
  E7                                        Em  A7
Give me one more chance to let another guy win her

  D                         C#7
Cross my heart, I hope to die
   E7                                Em   A7
I'll never, never, never, tell one more time
       Em            A7         D
I'll never tell another white lie
