I can't be me when you expect that I'm another Why can't you see that I fell out in disgrace To make you feel that's no point in hurt each other When you decide that I must lose this race I don't have nothing but this old piece of paper A pen and my guitar to let you see it through This old poor heart that I guess it needs a mending All I've got is three chords and the Truth Three chords and the Truth when I'm so lonesome Three chords and the Truth when I'm so blue Three chords and the Truth when you Leave me baby and I can't stop lovin' you Three chords and the Truth never can lose (Woo) ♪ Three chords and the Truth when I'm so lonesome Three chords and the Truth when I'm so blue Three chords and the Truth when you Leave me baby and I can't stop lovin' you Three chords and the Truth never can lose ♪ I love you babe and I want you be a bit thoughtful About all things I renounced just for you I'm aware you did similar things for me too I'm glad you did, let me see how much are you Just wrote this lines trying to find the purpose Of all the good and bad things that I do So, as you can see, this tune has some mojo Just written with three chords and the Truth Three chords and the Truth when I'm so lonesome Three chords and the Truth when I'm so blue Three chords and the Truth when you Leave me baby and I can't stop lovin' you
