The Truth Ukulele by Foster The People

     Ab                   Fm
Well I've been trying to re-learn my name
   Eb            Ab
It seems like a thousand years
     Fm                         Eb     
I've been out of frame and I surrender
    Ab
The truth is what
          Fm    
What I've needed from you
Eb         Ab                    Fm      
I've been floating within your walls of opinion
Eb       Ab
And I'm tired - I only want the truth
 
 
Db                          
 -I have tried so hard not to be like them
Ab                                 Ab  
 I have found they don't ever say what they mean-
Db                             Fm   Ab
 There is a truth, there is a light
Bbm                 Ab     
If you'd follow me there
Db
 -I've been searching for the directions and
Ab                                     Ab  
 I'm convinced the world doesn't know what it needs-
Db                        Fm      Ab
 There is a hope for the hopeless
Bbm                Ab
I can promise you that
 
 
           Ab
Yeah, well I've been accosted
 
The jury's been partial
    Ab
But I won't surrender
                        Ab
To prove to you I won't lie
                        Fm
Under pressure of compromise
Eb             Ab                      
Yeah, well an absolute measure
 
Won't change with opinion
   Fm                     
No matter how hard you try
          Eb       Ab
It's an immovable thing
                               Fm           
Just like the visions in your bed
                           Eb      Db
Or when they're streaming in your head
 
 
Db                          
 -I have tried so hard not to be like them
Ab                                 Ab  
 I have found they don't ever say what they mean-
Db                             Fm   Ab
 There is a truth, there is a light
Bbm                 Ab     
If you'd follow me there
Db
 -I've been searching for the directions and
Ab                                     Ab             Db
 I'm convinced the world doesn't know what it needs-
           Fm   Ab     
There is a hope
Bbm            Ab
And I'll come back
 
 
          Db
If you're leading my hand
The world is so broken
    Ab
I'm tripping my steps
                 Ab      Db
I'm slipping and I know why
                              Em  G-Am
I never thought that I'd be here
            Ab            Db                  
A blinding call to prayer has touched my feet
 
Like the call of the prophets
  Ab                                 Ab        Db
A purpose is needed before you know that you know
                          Fm  Ab
To never wonder what you are
    Bbm                          Ab
And not forget where you come from
