[Intro]

 

B  F#  G#m  F#  E   F#

 

[Verse 1]

 

B           F#             G#m              F#    E      F#

 Lie number one: You're supposed to have it all together

               B              F#

 And when they ask how you're doing

      G#m                F#      E       F#

 Just smile and tell them "Never better"

B           F#        G#m            F#        E          F#

 Lie number two: Everybody's life is perfect except yours

              B               F#              G#m

 So keep your messes and your wounds and your secrets safe

      F#          E           F#

 With you behind closed doors

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

E             F#        G#m             E

 But truth be told, the truth is rarely told

 

 

[Chorus]

 

            B               F#            G#m            F#

I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"

    E              F#

But I'm not, I'm broken

              B         F#              G#m        F#

And when it's out of control I say it's under control

    E                F#

But it's not and You know it

  E                                F#

I don't know why it's so hard to admit it

           G#m           F#          E

When being honest is the only way to fix it

           B           F#

There's no failure, no fall

           G#m           F#      E

There's no sin You don't already know

           F#       B    F#   G#m   F#   E   F#

So let the truth be told

 

 

[Verse 2]

 

           B           F#

 There's a sign on the door, says,

  G#m         F#         E         F#

 "Come as you are" but I doubt it

              B                    F#

 'Cause if we lived like that was true,

       G#m            F#           E       F#

 Every Sunday morning pew would be crowded

B           F#      G#m

 But didn't You say church should look

 F#          E         F#

 More like a hospital?

        B             F#        G#m            F#

 A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred,

         E              F#

 And the prodigals like me

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

E             F#        G#m             E

 But truth be told, the truth is rarely told

             F#

 Oh am I the only one who says:

 

 

[Chorus]

     B               F#            G#m            F#

"I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"

    E              F#

But I'm not, I'm broken

              B         F#              G#m        F#

And when it's out of control I say it's under control

    E                F#

But it's not and You know it

  E                                F#

I don't know why it's so hard to admit it

           G#m           F#          E

When being honest is the only way to fix it

           B           F#

There's no failure, no fall

           G#m           F#      E

There's no sin You don't already know

           F#       E

So let the truth be told

 

 

[Bridge]

 

             F#            G#m

Can I really stand here unashamed

                  B                 E

Knowing that Your love for me won't change

           F#

Oh God, if that's really true

     B   F#  G#m   F# E    F#

Then let the truth be told

 

 

[Chorus]

 

            B               F#            G#m            F#

I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"

    E              F#

But I'm not, I'm broken

              B         F#              G#m        F#

And when it's out of control I say it's under control

    E                F#

But it's not and You know it

  E                                F#

I don't know why it's so hard to admit it

           G#m           F#          E

When being honest is the only way to fix it

           B           F#

There's no failure, no fall

           G#m           F#      E

There's no sin You don't already know

       F#

Yeah I know

           B           F#

There's no failure, no fall

           G#m           F#      E

There's no sin You don't already know

           F#

So let the truth be told
