Intro: Em D G  (2x) 
  
  D        Em             D 
Truth is but a woman with flaxen hair 
      C                     G          C 
While blown by the wind, cannot begin 
                      G 
Lest the ravens utter in despair 
    Em            G 
For they cannot caress her flower 
    Em                G 
Nor in the hour, find hands of care 
                      Dsus4       G 
So 'round the maypole drift their wings 
                      Dsus4  G 
They cannot drink her beauty springs 
  
  
  D        Em             D 
Truth is but a woman with eyes of black 
      C                           G             C 
While seen through her tears, can see no fears 
                           G 
Lest they be seen from the other side 
    Em         G 
And I cannot behold her smile 
    Em               G 
But in my trial hope to abide 
                      Dsus4 G 
So 'round the maypole hover near 
               Dsus4 G 
In someway her lover here 
      D            Em              
And truth is but a woman, yeah, yeah 
  
  
Instrumental: D C G C G   Em D G   Em D G   
  
  
  D        Em          D               C 
Truth is but a woman, adorned in white 
                          G             C 
A child in waiting like a mystic bride 
                           G 
Without a husband standing by her side 
    Em             G 
And she cannot withhold her love 
     Em               G 
It's you and me she's thinking of 
                      Dsus4     G 
So 'round the maypole drift our wings 
              Dsus4    G 
Listen to the song she sings 
      D            Em     D 
Oh, truth is but a woman
