E                C#m
You called me at night
                  F#m
I thought we were fine
              B
I told you I don't
love you darling
E                    C#m
Now I'm right by the phone
                  F#m
answering to your calls
                   B
I've got to come clean
my darling

E              C#m           F#m     B
I haven't been true to you in so long
E              C#m           F#m     B
I haven't been true to you in so long

Chorus:
E   Emaj7            E7           A  E
Now here we go it's terrible to think
  Emaj7          E7                A
I wanted you but I just couldn't stay
          E Emaj7
and you know
      E7              A
it's hard to love someone
           E Emaj7
when you know
      E7             A
that we're far too young

And now I'm standing here
I want to be the one for you
and now I cant believe the things I feel
I feel for you

I haven't been true to you in so long
I haven't been true to you in so long

Chorus

C#m     G#m
I am an awful man
  F#m           G#m
I never keep my secrets.
C#m        G#m
I told you all those lies
    F#m           G#m
and I heard you believed them.
C#m     G#m
I am an awful man
  F#m           G#m
I never keep my secrets.
C#m        G#m
I told you all those lies
    F#m           G#m
and I heard you believed them.

E              C#m           F#m      B
I haven't been true to you in so long
