Verse 1
A                       Amaj7 
If I showed you my teardrops  
Dmaj7                   Dm 
would you collect them like rain. 
G                       Em 
Would you store them in jars 
B7                      A7      Am7 
that are labelled with „pain“. 
 
Verse 2
A                       Amaj7 
Would you follow their tracks 
Dmaj7                   Dm 
from my eyes down my cheeks 
G                       Em 
As they write all the stories 
B7                      A7      Am7 
I´m so frightened to speak. 
 
Chorus
Cm                      Gm 
Would you hold my face gently 
F#m                     Bm 
as you dry both of my eyes. 
Gm                      Dmaj7 
And kindly whisper the words 
A               E       Em 
„you´re much too precious to cry“. 
 
Verse 3
A                       Amaj7 
Would you stop them with kisses 
Dmaj7                   Dm 
bring there flow to a halt. 
G                       Em 
As you teach me that pain 
B7                      A7      Am7 
couldn´t always be my fault. 
 
Verse 4
A                       Amaj7 
If I showed you my teardrops. 
Dmaj7                   Dm 
would you show me your own 
G                       Em 
And learn though we´re lonely, 
B7                      A7      Am7 
we´ll never ever be left alone. 
 
Chorus
Cm                      Gm

as you dry both of my eyes. 
Gm                      Dmaj7 
And kindly whisper the words 
A               E       Em 
 „you´re much too precious to cry“.
