George Jones - The Cold Hard Truth lyrics

[ vocal only ]

[B7] You Don't know who I [E] am

But I know all about [A] you

I've come to talk to you [B7] tonight

About the things I've seen you [ E] do.

[ vocal only ]

[B7] I've come to set the record [E] straight

I've come to shine the light on [A] you

Let me introduce my [B7] self

I'm the cold hard [E] truth.

[ vocal only ]

[B7] There is a woman we both [E] know

I think you know the one I [A] mean

She gave her heart and soul to [B7] you

You gave her only broken [E] dreams

[ vocal only ]

[B7] You say your not the one to [E] blame

For all the heartaches she's been [A] though

I say you're nothing but a [B7] liar

And I'm the cold hard [E] truth.

[E7] All your life that's how it's [A] been

Lookin' out for number [E] one

Takin' more than you [B7] give

Movin' on when you're [E] done.

[E7] With her you could have had it [A] all

A family and love to [E] last

If you had any sense at [B7] all

You'de go and beg her to come [E] back.

[ vocal only ]

[B7] You think that you're a real [E] man

But you're nothing but a [A] fool

The way you run away from [B7] love

The way you try to play it [E] cool

[ vocal only ]

[B7] I'm gonna say this just one [E] time

Time is running out on [A] you

You best remember me my [B7] friend

I am the cold hard [E] truth.

You best remember me my [B7] friend

I am the cold hard [E] truth.
