Help with Jason Aldean The Truth
Been trying to learn this today but having a problem when going into the part "just don't tell them I've gone crazy." That C chord just doesn't sound like the right transition into that line coming off a C from the previous verse. Can you guys take a look at the chords below and see if it's just me?
Thanks Jed G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G C D G Cadd9 Tell em all I'm on vacation, G Cadd9 Say I went to visit friends, G C That you ain't heard or seen from me in quite a while, G C When they ask you where I've been, D Caad9 D Tell em I'm out on the west coast where it don't ever rain, C And that I'm probably doing fine, (Chorus) C G D Just don't tell em I've gone crazy, C G D That I'm still strung out over you, C Em Tell em anything you want to, D Cadd9 Just don't tell em all the truth, G D Yeah don't tell em all the truth, Tell em all I'm out in Vegas, Blowin' every dollar I ever made, Tell em that I must be into something bad for me cause, I sure lost a lot of weight, Tell em I'm out on the road with some old rock and roll band, Living like a gypsy can, (Chorus) C G The truth is that I'm asking you to lie, D C And we both know that it ain't right, G But if you ever loved me please, D C Have some mercy on me, G D C G D C Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, C Em Tell em anything you want to, D Cadd9 Just don't tell em all the truth, G D Yeah don't tell em all the truth, Same as intro I still need you, Yeah that's the truth, I still love you, Baby that's the truth. |

The key is A on the version I found, but going with your choice of G (capo on 2 for original key of course):
The last chord of the verse and first chord of the chorus are both Cadd9. But in the previous line there's an Em between the two D chords, not Cadd9 (on the words "west coast"). At the end of the chorus the right chords are: Code:
|Em / D / |C / Bm7 / | |...want to, just don't tell em all the |truth, yeah don't tell em all the | |Am / / / |Dadd9 / / / || truth
