Words and music by hank williams, sr. [c] I could [g7] say it's over [c] now [c7] That [f] I was glad to see you [c] go [f] I could hate you for the [c] way I'm [am] feelin' My [g7] lips could tell a lie, but my heart would [c] know. [c7] [f] it's a sin to make me [c] cry [g7] when you know I love you [c] so [c7] [f] I could tell my heart that [c] I don't [am] miss you My [g7] lips could tell a lie, but my heart would [c] know. I could give you all the blame But I'm sure the truth would show I could tell this world I've found a new love My lips could tell a lie, but my heart would know. I can't fool my cryin' heart 'cause it knows I need you so I could tell my heart I'm glad we parted My lips could tell a lie, but my heart would know.
