Bb-Bbm-Gbmaj7-F7

Bb                 Eb        F                Dm7

If you search for tenderness it isn't hard to find

Eb               Gm                Am  Cm7-F-F7

You can have the love you need to live

Bb                  C                      F               D

And if you look for truthfulness you might just as well be blind

Eb              A             D

It always seems to be so hard to give

 chorus

Ebmaj7   F7  D                Gm7  F

Honest-  y   is such a lonely word

Eb          F       Bb    D

Everyone is so untrue

Ebmaj7   F7  D               Gm7

Honest-  y   is hardly ever heard

Eb                F           Bb  F9sus

But mostly what I need from you

[end chorus]

Bb           Eb           F                 Dm7

I can always find someone to say they sympathize

Eb           Gm              Am     Cm7-F-F7

If I wear my heart out on my sleeve

Bb                    C              F                 D

But I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies

Eb            A               D

All I want is someone to believe

[repeat chorus]

Gm                  D

I can find a lover, I can find a friend

F7                            C

I can have security until the bitter end

Eb         F         F7    Eb           Bb

Anyone can comfort me with promises again

C7      F   D-Eb-F9sus

I know, I know

Bb                Eb        F                    Dm

When I'm deep inside of me, don't be too concerned

Eb               Bb               Am     Cm7-F-F7

I won't ask for nothing while I'm gone

Bb             C                    F    A     Dm

When I want sincerity tell me where else can I turn?

Eb                 A7         D7

Cause you're the one that I depend upon
