1. They say that I'm the[D] kind of person who always speaks my mi[A]nd.
2. I wish that I was stronger I could tell them that you've gone.
[A7]To me there's nothing stronger then the t[D]ruth.
But that's one thing that I may never do.
[D]You can ask me almost anything and I'll te[A]ll you like it is.
If they want to hear about our love and how it all went wrong.
But darli[A7]n' when they ask me about y[D]ou.
Then darlin' they will just have to talk to you.
Chorus:
[(D)]I tell it like it u[G]se to be When you were still in l[D]ove with me
Before you got to u[A]se to me and wa[Bm]nted someone [A]new
I tell it like it ou[G]ght to be 'cause how it is is kil[D]ling me
When they ask about y[A]ou and me I t[G]ell it like it u[A]se to [D]be.
