Matter Of Trust chords
Billy Joel *

One, two, one two three four

D Bm 2x

D          A     Bm  A D
Some love is just a lie of the heart
              A     Bm     A
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start

And they may not want it to end
             A7     D
But it will, it's just a question of when

D        A       Bm   A D
I've lived long enough to have learned
             A    Bm      A
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned

But that won't happen to us
              A7    D
Because it's always been a matter of trust

D Bm 2x

D         A    Bm  A D
I know you're an emotional girl
             A       Bm      A
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world

I can't offer you proof
            A7    D
But you're gonna face a moment of truth

D           A    Bm  A D
It's hard when you're always afraid
            A    Bm    A
You just recover when another belief is betrayed

So break my heart if you must
    A7    D
It's a matter of trust

  Em
You can't go the distance
   F#m
With too much resistance
 G       F#m
I know you have doubts
    Bm            G  A D
But for God's sake don't shut me out

D          A     Bm A D
This time you've got nothing to lose
             A       Bm    A
You can take it, you can leave it, whatever you choose



I won't hold back anything
           A7    D
And I'll walk away a fool or a king

D          A     Bm  A D
Some love is just a lie of the mind
               A   Bm    A
It's make believe until it's only a matter of time

And some might have learned to adjust
            A7    D
But then it never was a matter of trust

D Bm 2x break

  Em
I'm sure you're aware love
   F#m
We've both had our share of
 G      F#m
Believing too long
     Bm         G  A D
When the whole situation was wrong

D          A     Bm A D
Some love is just a lie of the soul
             A    Bm     A
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control

After you've heard lie upon lie
           A7     D
There can hardly be a question of why

D          A     Bm  A D
Some love is just a lie of the heart
              A     Bm     A
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start

But that can't happen to us
              A7    D
Because it's always been a matter of trust

D Bm
      D
A matter of trust

D Bm 2x

               D
It's always been a matter of trust

D Bm 2x
         D
It's a matter of trust. . . .
