Tell Me That It Isn’t True Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have heard rumors all over town
They say that you're planning to put me down

All I'd like you to do
Is tell me that it isn't true

[Verse 2]
They say that you've been seen with some other man
That he's tall, dark and handsome, and you're holdin' his hand
Darling, I'm a-countin' on you
Tell me that it isn't true

[Bridge]
To know that some other man is holdin' you tight
It hurts me all over, it doesn't seem right

[Verse 3]
All of these awful things that I have heard
I don't wanna believe them, all I want is your word
So, darlin', you better come through
Tell me that it isn't true

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
All of these awful things that I have heard
I don't want to believe them, all I want is your word
So, darlin', I'm countin' on you
Tell me that it isn't true

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
