Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful Paloma Faith
Lyrics and guitar chords
Intro
The court of conscience came before me.
Presented me with a heavenly angel.
He took my hand and asked me truths aside.
To his questions I reply:
Chorus:
Em,F
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Just
Em,F
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
He stood as tall as redwood trees.
Drank tea from a seamstress thimble.
I didn't want to speak the honest truth.
So I spit out lies that aimed to soothe.
Chorus:
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Just close your eyes and make believe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
I am happy to deceive you.
I can
Sacred.. lies.. and..telling... tales.
I can be who you want me to be.
But do you want me?

Chorus:
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Just close your eyes and make believe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
I am happy to deceive you.
Sacred... lies... and telling.. tales.
I can be who you want me to be.
Sacred.. lies.. and..telling... tales.
I can be who you want me to be.
But do you want me?
But do you want me?
