[VERSE 1]
D            A                  Em       Em
 Tell the truth woman just this time, I know you can do it,
D        A                      Em           Em
 Your baby's eyes look just like mine, we could both see through it,
D            A                    Em       Em
 Tell the truth woman just this time,
         G              D                A
I didn't know how much you would take from me.

D                     A            Em          Em
 When you teach this little girl to walk, her laughter will be mine,
D                   A                 Em               Em
 There's a price to pay for a safe place to hide, tell me are you warm inside?
D            A                    Em       Em
 Tell the truth woman just this time,
G                D                  A
Seems that things could've been different, but
A
 I can't change it.


[CHORUS]
Em G         D
 So alright Caroline,

I won't take nothing from you,
   G         D
 Alright Caroline,
D                    Em
Won't even tell the truth,
   G
 Alright


[VERSE 2]
D                     A              Em       Em
 Like a big black cloud coming down, it feels like I blew it
D                    A               Em          Em
 I never said we were messing around, but we could both see through it
D         A                     Em         Em         G            D
 Tell the truth woman just this time,
A
 Both, both of us
A
 Both of us, both of us.

Won't even tell the truth,
   G       G

[BRIDGE]
Em                      G                         Bm
 Time moves faster today, but let's not speak of this,
                 A
 Some things you cannot mend, yeah
Em                         G                    Bm
 And I'm watching her sleep, she's beautiful,
                                A
 And you tell me that I won't be seeing you again.


[CHORUS]
                 Em                  G   D
 You didn't even ask me, if it was alright
Em   G         D
 If it was alright,
D             Em
If it was alright,
   G         D
 If it was alright,
Em   G
