Words I Couldn't Say by Leighton Meester
Words I Couldn't Say
Capo on the 6th
VERSE 1:
G. Cadd9
In a book, in a box, in the closet
G. Cadd9
In a line, in a song I once heard
Am. G. D
In a moment on a front porch late one June
Am. G. D
In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon
G. Cadd9
There it was at the tips of my fingers
G. Cadd9
There it was on the tip of my tongue
Am. G. D
There you were and I had never been that far
Am. G. D
There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms
Am. C. D
And I let it all slip away
CHORUS:
G. Cadd9
What do I do now that you're gone
C
No back up plan, no second chance
Em. D
And no one else to blame
G. Cadd9. C
All I can hear in the silence that remains
D. C. G
Are the words I couldn't say
VERSE 2:
There's a rain that will never stop fallin'
There's a wall that I tried to take down
What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips
So I held back and now we've come to this
And it's too late now
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Am. G. F
I should have found a way to tell you how I felt
Am. F
Now the one I'm telling is myself
CHORUS
