[Intro]
F C G
[Verse 1]
F
Take your hand off my knee
C G
Take your foot off my neck
F C G
Why are y’all examining me like I’m a murder suspect
F C
If I got a little loose
G
I just forgot to be afraid
F C G
But I started out a true believer babe
F C
Lotta dangerous memories
G
A lot of bars in this town
F C G
Those who I loved and lost and then still stuck around
F C
But I heard God in the Ryman
G
And I crawled out of the grave
F C G
I guess I’m still a true believer babe
[Chorus]
Am F C
All your girlfriends say I broke your fucking heart
G
And I don’t like it
Am F
And there’s a letter on the nightstand
C G
I don’t think I’ll ever read
Am F
Well I finally found a match
C G
But you kept daring me to strike it
Am F
So I have to let it burn
C G
To let it be
[Verse 2]
F C
I can’t remember my dreams
G
I guess it could be the meds
F C G
But the sound of you screaming won’t get out of my head
F C G
And I still remember the fever before it started to fade
F C G
I really was a true believer babe
[Chorus]
Am F C
All your girlfriends say I broke your fucking heart
G
And I don’t like it
Am F
And there’s a letter on the nightstand
C G
I don’t think I’ll ever read
Am F
Well I finally found a match
C G
But you kept daring me to strike it
Am F
So I have to let it burn
C G
To let it be
[Verse 3]
F C
Like the stain on your teeth
G
I’m as stubborn as wine
F C
Just when you get think I’m beaten
G
I get up every time
F C G
So when we pass on the highway I’ll smile and I’ll wave
F C G
But I’ll always be a true believer babe
F C G
But I’ll always be a true believer babe
