[Verse 1]
D                                     G
  I used to think of myself as a storyteller,
A                                                 D
  that I could really weave a tale or spin a yarn.
D                                               G
  That I could sit down and write you a million seller,
A                                       D
  on pen and paper on the back of my guitar.

[Verse 2]
D                                     G
  But this turn of events sure got me spinnin',
A                                            D
  I'm second guessin' everything I thought I knew.
D                                       G
  It's not the sane ending of a great beginning,
A                                      D*
  I couldn't make it up if I wanted to.

[Chorus]
D                       G             A                 D
  'Cause there ain't no words to say, lines to write or chords to play,
D                G              A               D
  to paint the depiction of him winding up with you.
D                     G                 A                   D
  And this world's so turned around I'm thinkin' about just layin' it down 'cause
D                      G          A                D          D
  I can't write enough fiction to keep up with the truth.

[Verse 3]
D                                 G
  I can't put a slant on this situation
A                                              D
  to make it feel any better than it really is.
D                                        G
  I guess I ain't no match for your imagination,
A                                            D
  I guess I ain't the only thing you ran off with.

[Chorus]
D                       G             A                 D
  'Cause there ain't no words to say, lines to write or chords to play,
D                G              A               D
  to paint the depiction of him winding up with you.
D                     G                 A                   D
  And this world's so turned around I'm thinkin' about just layin' it down 'cause
D                      G          A                D
  I can't write enough fiction to keep up with the truth.

[Interlude]

| D          | G          | A          | D          |

[End-Chorus]
D                       G             A                 D
  'Cause there ain't no words to say, lines to write or chords to play,
D                G              A               D
  to paint the depiction of him winding up with you.
D                     G                 A                   D
  And this world's so turned around I'm thinkin' about just layin' it down 'cause
D                      G          A                D
  I can't write enough fiction to keep up with the truth.
D                      G          A*
  I can't write enough fiction to keep up with the [Outro] truth.
