[Intro]
 
B F# G#m F# E F#
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
B F# G#m F# E F# Lie number one: You're supposed to have it all together
B F# And when they ask how you're doing
G#m F# E F# Just smile and tell them "Never better"
B F# G#m F# E F# Lie number two: Everybody's life is perfect except yours
B F# G#m So keep your messes and your wounds and your secrets safe
F# E F# With you behind closed doors
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
E F# G#m E But truth be told, the truth is rarely told
 
 
[Chorus]
 
B F# G#m F#I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"
E F#But I'm not, I'm broken
B F# G#m F#And when it's out of control I say it's under control
E F#But it's not and You know it
E F#I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
G#m F# EWhen being honest is the only way to fix it
B F#There's no failure, no fall
G#m F# EThere's no sin You don't already know
F# B F# G#m F# E F#So let the truth be told
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
B F# There's a sign on the door, says,
G#m F# E F# "Come as you are" but I doubt it
B F# 'Cause if we lived like that was true,
G#m F# E F# Every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
B F# G#m But didn't You say church should look
F# E F# More like a hospital?
B F# G#m F# A safe place for the sick, the sinner and the scarred,
E F# And the prodigals like me
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
E F# G#m E But truth be told, the truth is rarely told
F# Oh the only one who says:
 
 
[Chorus]
B F# G#m F#"I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"
E F#But I'm not, I'm broken
B F# G#m F#And when it's out of control I say it's under control
E F#But it's not and You know it
E F#I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
G#m F# EWhen being honest is the only way to fix it
B F#There's no failure, no fall
G#m F# EThere's no sin You don't already know
F# ESo let the truth be told
 
 
[Bridge]
 
F# G#mCan I really stand here unashamed
B EKnowing that Your love for me won't change
F#Oh God, if that's really true
B F# G#m F# E F#Then let the truth be told
 
 
[Chorus]
 
B F# G#m F#I say, "I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine, oh, I'm fine, hey, I'm fine"
E F#But I'm not, I'm broken
B F# G#m F#And when it's out of control I say it's under control
E F#But it's not and You know it
E F#I don't know why it's so hard to admit it
G#m F# EWhen being honest is the only way to fix it
B F#There's no failure, no fall
G#m F# EThere's no sin You don't already know
F#Yeah I know
B F#There's no failure, no fall
G#m F# EThere's no sin You don't already know
F#So let the truth be told
