Blessing in Disguise

K. Kristofferson (intro verse written by Carter/Warren) D D7 G You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you A D A You asked me not to call you on the phone D D7 G But there's somethin' I wanted to tell you A D So I wrote it in the words of this song D G D G-D Well I guess you know, you took me by surprise A G D G-D When you told me that you'd broken all the rules D G D G-D And the future felt as empty as your eyes A D D7D When I realized how far I was from you CHORUS: G D But they tell me that the truth will set you free AGDD7 G D G And it led me to a side of you that I'd refused to see D A G So I guess it's been a blessing in disguise BREAK: D A G So there's nothing left to keep us holding on now To the mystery we used to be before What we ever shared together there is gone now And what might have been don't matter anymore CHORUS: But they tell me that the truth will set you free And it led me to a side of you that I'd refused to see So I guess it's been a blessing in disguise OUTRO: D A G D G D
