Oldest Myth, Arthur William Stone
[Verse 1]
GI never knew how a love like this could feel.C  
I never knew that a man could be so wrong.G  
I never fell for the oldest myth in the world.C  
It's hard to fall, when you're nailed to the ground, but thenG...
There was a prince who faught for love in ol' Camelot.C  
He saved the maiden and he guessed that she cared a lot.G  
They wrote the book they call the oldest myth in the world.C  
Whatever sells, I guess I should know, but then...
[Pre-Chorus 1]
GYou don't know what I know,
and Cyou don't like what I like,
and Gyou don't go where I go.
The Coldest myth in world.
[Chorus 1]
But if my Gworld had fallen in a hurricane,
would you Ceven bother to write?
Or would you Gbury me with all the things that we've,
been Ctrying for so long,
to just let Ggo.
[Verse 2]
GI never cared how the fairy tale could end.C  
I never knew that a man could be so strongG  
I never fell for the oldest myth in the world.C  
It's hard to tell, when you just can't feel, but then...
[Pre-Chorus 2]
GYou don't know what I know,
and Cyou don't like what I like,
and Gyou don't go where I go.
The Coldest myth in world.
[Chorus 2]
But if my Gworld had fallen in a hurricane,
would you Ceven bother to write?
Or would you Gbury me with all the things that we've,
been Ctrying for so long,
to just let Dgo...
[Bridge]
I know that you've Ccried.
But the things you don't Dknow,
and the things that you Chide,
are the oldest myths in the...
[Chorus 3]
Gworld had fallen in a hurricane,
would you Ceven bother to write?
Or would you Gbury me with all the things that we've,
been Ctrying for so long,
to just let Ggo...
to just let Cgo...
to just let Ggo...
to just let Cgo...
to just let Ggo...

Oldest Myth, Arthur William Stone

[Verse 1]

G C

I never knew how a love like this could feel.

I never knew that a man could be so wrong.

I never fell for the oldest myth in the world.

It's hard to fall, when you're nailed to the ground, but then...

There was a prince who faught for love in ol' Camelot.

He saved the maiden and he guessed that she cared a lot.

They wrote the book they call the oldest myth in the world.

Whatever sells, I guess I should know, but then...

[Pre-Chorus 1]

You don't know what I know,

and you don't like what I like,

and you don't go where I go.

The oldest myth in world.

[Chorus 1]

But if my world had fallen in a hurricane,

would you even bother to write?

Or would you bury me with all the things that we've,

been trying for so long,

to just let go.

[Verse 2]

G C

I never cared how the fairy tale could end.

I never knew that a man could be so strong

I never fell for the oldest myth in the world.

It's hard to tell, when you just can't feel, but then...

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You don't know what I know,

and you don't like what I like,

and you don't go where I go.

The oldest myth in world.

[Chorus 2]

But if my world had fallen in a hurricane,

would you even bother to write?

Or would you bury me with all the things that we've,

been trying for so long,

to just let go...

[Bridge]

I know that you've cried.

But the things you don't know,

and the things that you hide,

are the oldest myths in the...

[Chorus 3]

world had fallen in a hurricane,

would you even bother to write?

Or would you bury me with all the things that we've,

been trying for so long,

to just let go...
