C
F        C         F     C
Do do do do do do
F     C      F     C
Truly Yours
F        C         F
Do do do do do do
C               F        C     F
That's what the letter said

[Verse 1]
     C          F          C           F
As I read the words written  in your letter
    C      F       C     F
The tears began to rise
        C                F                 C                 F
I could read between the lines, though you    thought it was better
       C       F         C       F
Not to use the word, "Goodbye"
      Em                                    Am               F
And I struggled to hold my pride, finally I broke down and I cried

Your letter ended

[Chorus]
C
Truly Yours
                     F
But you're no longer truly, truly mine
                     C
Though you signed it Truly Yours
                     F
But you're no longer truly, truly mine
         C         F
I'm left behind

[Verse 2]
          C          F          C           F
Now, it's painfully clear that you been concealing
     C        F       C     F
Your feelings behind lies
      C          F            C       F
And I feel so foolish to have  ever believed you
       C       F     C       F
And to think I even cried
        Em
But the one thing I'll never understand
                   Am                          F
How you'd find the nerve to take a pen in your hand
And sign your letter

[Chorus]
C
Truly Yours
                            F
When you know that you were never truly mine
                      C
How did you sign with Truly Yours
                            F
When you know that you were never truly mine
                   C        F    C         F
Just mean you been lying

[Verse 3]
  C             F               C    F
Although you're gone and I'm-a left alone
    C      F      C     F
And we are far apart
    C          F                C     F
The shell of a man that you discard behind
      C             F       C       F
Still love you with all his heart
        Em
But the one thing I'll never understand
                Am                          F
How to find the nerve to take a pen in your hand
And sign your letter

[Chorus]
C
Truly Yours
                            F
When you know that you were never truly mine
                      C
How did you sign with Truly Yours
                            F
When you know that you were never truly mine
      C
Truly Yours
                     F
But you're no longer truly, truly mine
                       C
Though you signed with Truly Yours
                 F
You're no longer truly, truly mine
