Tom: C
C                    C7          F
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
    G7                              C     G7
You asked me not to call you on the phone
            C           C7        F
But there's somethin' I wanted to tell you
     G7                            C
So I wrote it in the words of this song
                      F                 C     F C
Well I guess you know you took me by surprise
         G7                 F              C     F C
When you told me that you'd broken all the rules
                       F             C    F C
And the future felt as empty as your eyes
       G7                          C    C7
When I realized how far I was from you
          F                                   C
But they tell me that the truth will set you free
G7              F              C     C7
From the sad confusion of your lies
 
       F                            C              F
And it led me to a side of you that I'd refused to see
     C                 G7             F
So I guess it's been a blessing in disguise
C                          F               C      F C
So there's nothing left to keep us holding on now
       G7         F          C      F C
To the mystery we used to be before
                      F               C        F C
What we ever shared together there is gone now
         G7                              C     C7
And what might have been don't matter anymore
          F                                   C
But they tell me that the truth will set you free
G7              F              C     C7
From the sad confusion of your lies
 
       F                            C              F
And it led me to a side of you that I'd refused to see
     C                 G7             F
So I guess it's been a blessing in disguise
