Version 1 Version 2 Version 3
            [Verse 1]
G                                                   Em
Lie number one you're supposed to have it all together
               G
And when they ask how you're doing
                                Em
Just smile and tell them, "Never better"
G                                         Em
Lie number 2 everybody's life is perfect except yours
             G
So keep your messes and your wounds
                                      Em
And your secrets safe with you behind closed doors


[Pre-Chorus]
G        D
Truth be told
    Em              C
The truth is rarely told, now


[Chorus]
          G               D           Em           D            Em
I say I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
    D
I'm broken
              G      D                  Em    D                Em
And when it's out of control I say it's under control but it's not
        D
And you know it
  C                              D
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
           G             D           Em
When being honest is the only way to fix it
           G           D
There's no failure, no fall
           Em            D       Em
There's no sin you don't already know
           D        G
So let the truth be told_


[Verse 2]
G                                                         Em
There's a sign on the door, says, "Come as you are" but I doubt it
             G                                                         Em
'Cause if we lived like it was true, every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
G                                                     Em
But didn't you say the church should look more like a hospital
       G                                                      Em             D
A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred and the prodigals like me


[Pre-Chorus
G             D
Well truth be told
    Em              C
The truth is rarely told
G           D
Oh am I the only one who says


[Chorus]
    G              D           Em            D            Em
I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
    D
I'm broken
              G      D                  Em    D                Em
And when it's out of control I say it's under control but it's not
        D
And you know it
  C                              D
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
           G             D           Em
When being honest is the only way to fix it
           G           D
There's no failure, no fall
           Em            D       Em
There's no sin you don't already know
           D       G
So let the truth be told


[Bridge]
G                       Em
Can I really stand here unashamed
Em               D                 Em
Knowin' that you love for me won't change?
          D
Oh God if that's really true
     G   D   Em    D  Em
Then let the truth be told


[Chorus]
          G              D           Em             D           Em
I say I'm fine, yeah I'm fine oh I'm fine, hey I'm fine but I'm not
    D
I'm broken
              G      D                  Em    D                Em
And when it's out of control I say it's under control but it's not
        D
And you know it
  C                              D
I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
           G             D           Em
When being honest is the only way to fix it
           G           D
There's no failure, no fall
           Em            D       Em
There's no sin you don't already know
       D
Yeah I know
           G           D
There's no failure, no fall
           Em            D       Em
There's no sin you don't already know
           D        G
So let the truth be told
