This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours is an album by the Manic Street Preachers. Released in September 1998 on Epic Records and in the United States the following year on Virgin Records.

The title is a quote taken from a speech given by Welsh British Labour Party politician Aneurin Bevan. The cover photograph was taken on Black Rock Sands near Porthmadog. It was the first Manics album to feature lyrics solely by Nicky Wire.

The album is much more subdued affair compared to previous albums with many songs having a more acoustic feel. The album debuted at #1 on the UK Album Chart and spent three weeks at the top of the charts.

The album was preceded by the single If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next, which debuted at #1 on the UK Singles Chart.
