If I Only Had the Words (To Tell You)

D E A D E A C E7
Intro

A A/C# D
If I only had the words to tell you
A/C# Bm7 G7 E7
If you only had the time to understand
A A/C# D

Though I know it wouldn�t change your feelings
A/C# Bm7 E7 A C E7
And I know you�ll carry on the best you can

A A/C# D
If I only had the urge to tell you
A/C# Bm7 G7 E7
If you only knew how hard it is to say
A A/C# D
When the simple lines have all been taken
A/C# Bm7 E7 A G7
And the radio repeats them every day

C C/E F
If I never find the song to sing you
C/E Dm7 Bb7 G7
If you always find it hard to comprehend
C C/E F
Well you know there wouldn�t be much meaning
C/E Dm7 G7 C
If I had to sing those tired words again

E7 Am E7 Am
Life... goes on and on
G C G C
And tonight... will soon be gone
Fmaj7 Em7
But if we try
Dm7 Gsus4 G Gsus2 G
We can be sure

C C/E F
If I only had the words to tell you
C/E Dm7 Bb7 G7
If you only had the time to understand
C C/E F
But I only have these arms to hold you
C/E Dm7 G7 C F G
And it�s all that you can ask of any man

C F Bb Dm G
Laa laa la la la laa la la la

REPEAT LAST VERSE
