Verse 1
D
E
I overheard a conversation some time ago
D
and I didn't like it. And that's what you
E
get for e -dropping.
So I had to go right in
D
and satisfy my own self
E
by jotting down a few words.
D
And these three characters,
E
you understand that I wanted to know what
they were talking about,
D
E
was love, truth, and confidence.
D
And very principled too,
but you know you're dissatisfied
when you see people get along
by themselves.
E
And what I heard, it come out,
D
E
love, truth, and confidence.
