Van Morrison - Three Chords And The Truth Lyrics






Well I started to sing
Hear the church bells ring
Three chords and the truth
Donigan was king

I said give me something
That I can use
Three chords and the truth
Shot of rhythm and blues

When the band comes through
And you know what to do
Got to play the blues
Three chords and the truth

And I woke up in the morning
And I heard the good news
Three chords and the truth
A shot of rhythm and blues

Three chords and the truth
Got to do everything
Hear the church bells ring
Donigan was king

Well I woke up in the morning
Before I went to school
Three chords and the truth
A shot of rhythm and blues

Three chords and the truth
Shot of rhythm and blues
Three chords and the truth
Baby, that I can use

Woke up in the morning
And I read the good news
Three chords and the truth
A shot of rhythm and blues

Three chords and the truth
Baby, you've got to move
Three chords and the truth
Got to stay in the groove

When your feet start dancing
And you just got nothing to lose
Three chords and the truth
A shot of rhythm and blues

Three chords and the truth
A shot of rhythm and blues
Three chords and the truth
Shot of rhythm and blues

Three chords and the truth
A shot of rhythm and blues
Three chords and the truth
Shot of rhythm and blues

Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth
Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth
Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth
Shot of rhythm and blues

Van Morrison Three Chords And The Truth Comments
  1. M.... L....

    Van is a musicholic

  2. s.... M....

    Genius !!!

  3. j.... h....

    50 plus years in and still grafting writing songs when most of his contemporaries are doing there old songs.total respect for this multi talented musician.i think he deserves that well used title the hardest working man in show business.keep on Mr Morrison I believe in your own words that the best is yet to come.

  4. L.... S....

    Makes me melt....in the best way.

  5. J.... L....

    Sweet thing🇧🇷

  6. B.... M....

    The Poetic Champion still Composes - thank you

  7. R.... M....

    "Uncle Van" still sounds great.

  8. t.... ....

    I love this great singer-/songwriter so much.
    A very long time I missed someone like him in Germany.
    I am so lucky that I don't have to wait longer because
    of the excellent musician Cynthia Nickschas.
    She has so much creativity and so many new ideas.
    Will she have a comparable long career like him?
    I hope so.
    And I think so.
    But Van I will never overlook, even if he doesn‘t sing anymore.
    He is a classic.
    But perhaps he never stops.

  9. J.... M....

    What is going on? I thought the bin lorry was outside.🤣

  10. H.... ....

    Christ this is one of the worst productions I have ever heard. Whoever mixed, mastered and engineered this have made my ears hurt. Harsh and horrible.

    H.... ....

    play me something you have done.

    H.... ....

    Yep and yep

    H.... ....

    Cloth ears.

  11. M.... M....

    What's with the beeping in the background? I'm guessing it's an anti-piracy thing, because surely no-one would put it there on purpose

    M.... M....

    I thought it was a vehicle reversing outside,the bin man maybe.

    M.... M....

    I can't stand it - thought it was an engineering mistake

    M.... M....

    I turned my phone down cuz I thought it was coming from somewhere else.when I discovered it was in the song I wondered who thought that was a good idea🥴🥴🥴 3 chords and the truth

  12. D.... G....

    I was all ready to like this but; it's that someone's timer going off in the background? It needs turning off. The acoustics sound like they're through a shitty DI, and the bass is flappy and oh-so session. This sounds nothing at all like AW.

  13. R.... L....

    This song feels like a melting pot of every Van song ever created...beautiful 💜👌🎧

  14. l.... c....

    another wonderful song about a 'season' and weather. I play all the autumn songs right now in October. love the fall!

  15. a.... n....

    Jack Carlow I agree with you one hundred Percent. Van Morrison is the man and the real deal.

  16. J.... C....

    That classic Van sound.

    J.... C....

    Actually, it isn't really, if you think about it. It's a spin on it. This seems much looser, much bassier, much dirtier than most all of his work in the last 25 years. It's sort of like Son Volt playing "Listen to The Lion"! His diction seems to be very clear here, too,which is always a good thing.
