Truth Is But A Woman

INTRO: Em D G  (2x)

  D        Em             D
Truth is but a woman with flaxen hair
      C                     G          C
While blown by the wind, cannot begin
                      G
Lest the ravens utter in despair
    Em            G
For they cannot caress her flower
    Em                G
Nor in the hour, find hands of care
                      Dsus4       G
So 'round the maypole drift their wings
                      Dsus4  G
They cannot drink her beauty springs


  D        Em             D
Truth is but a woman with eyes of black
      C                           G             C
While seen through her tears, can see no fears
                           G
Lest they be seen from the other side
    Em         G
And I cannot behold her smile
    Em               G
But in my trial hope to abide
                      Dsus4 G
So 'round the maypole hover near
               Dsus4 G
In someway her lover here
      D            Em
And truth is but a woman, yeah, yeah


INSTRUMENTAL: D C G C G   Em D G   Em D G


  D        Em          D               C
Truth is but a woman, adorned in white
                          G             C
A child in waiting like a mystic bride
                           G
Without a husband standing by her side
    Em             G
And she cannot withhold her love
     Em               G
It's you and me she's thinking of
                      Dsus4     G
So 'round the maypole drift our wings
              Dsus4    G
Listen to the song she sings
      D            Em     D
Oh, truth is but a woman
