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.
