Lesson Learned Ray Lamontagne

[Em]Em G C x2

[C]In[Em]tro

[Em]Well the truth it fell so heavy

[G]Like a hammer through the room

[C]That I could choose another over [G]her

[C]You always said I was an ac[Em]tor, baby

[G]Guess in truth you thought me just am[D]ateur

[Em]That you never saw the signs

That yo[G]u never lost your grip

Oh, come[C] on now

That's such a childish cla[G]im

Now I w[C]ear the brand of traitor

Don't it s[Em]eem a bit absurd

When it's [G]clear I was so obviously frame[D]d

When it's [C]clear I was so obviously fram[Em]ed

[Em]

Now you [Em]act so surprised

To [G]hear what you already know

[C]And all you really had to do was a[G]sk

[C]I'd have told you straight away

All those li[Em]es were truth

[G]And all that was false was [D]fact

[Em]Now you hold me close and hard

[G]But I was like a statue at most

[C]Refusing to acknowledge you'd been [G]hurt

[C]Now you're clawing at my throat

[Em]And you're crying all is lost

[G]But your tears they felt so hot upon my s[D]hirt

[C]But your tears they felt so hot upon my s[Em]hirt

Repeat Intro.

[Em]Well the truth it fell so heavy

[G]Like a hammer through the room

[C]That I could choose another over h[G]er

[C]You always said I was an act[Em]or, baby

[G]Guess in truth you thought me just am[D]ateur

[Em]Was it you who told me once

[G]Now looking back it seems so real

[C]That all our mistakes are merely [G]grist for the mill

[C]So why is it now after I [Em]had my fill

[G]That you steal from me the sorrow that I've[D] earned

[C]Shall we call this a lesson lea[G]rned?

[C]Shall we call this a lesson lea[Em]rned?

End on Em

The chords are right on this song, but the placement in relation to the words is often off a bit. Don't let it fool you!
