Words and music by hank williams, sr.
[c] I could [g7] say it’s over [c] now [c7]
That [f] I was glad to see you [c] go
[f] I could hate you for the [c] way I’m [am] feelin’
My [g7] lips could tell a lie, but my heart would [c] know. [c7]
[f] it’s a sin to make me [c] cry
[g7] when you know I love you [c] so [c7]
[f] I could tell my heart that [c] I don’t [am] miss you
My [g7] lips could tell a lie, but my heart would [c] know.
I could give you all the blame
But I’m sure the truth would show
I could tell this world I’ve found a new love
My lips could tell a lie, but my heart would know.
I can’t fool my cryin’ heart
’cause it knows I need you so
I could tell my heart I’m glad we parted
My lips could tell a lie, but my heart would know.
