Three Chords And The Truth


D
On a highway bound for nowhere

I ran my fingers through my tangled hair
     G                             D
As I pulled in for another tank of freedom

With a hundred miles behind me

And a million more to go
      E                           A
I was tryin' to put some distance between us


D
I turned on the radio

And a voice came over sweet and low
      G                                 D
And I didn't know the tears were gonna start
G
But what amazed me even more
        D                G
Is I'd never heard that song before
D             A                 D
But somehow I knew each word by heart


Chorus:
                 G                 D
And I don't know why, I don't know how
A                                    
But with his song he turned my life and
D
This old car around
D           G                  D   G 
Just when I thought I was over you-oooh
G             D    A                         D
He changed my mind with three chords and the truth



D
Found a pay phone at a truck stop

Said a prayer as the quater dropped
G                                     D
Oh, please be home, I know that I was wrong
G
Honey, don't talk, just listen
          D                G
I think I found what I was missin'
     D            A              D
In a song I heard tonight on the radio
