Verse 1:
AmG
The flowers have
DmCG
wilted on the sill
F
And words have been
CG/BAm
kept so small and still
GDm
And yet if the great
CG
opinion speaks
FC
Then sadly we nod
G/BF
our heads and agree
G
Barely a mention
E/G#
of your name
On deaf ears a
AmG
distant whisper
F Fm(Hold)
Whatever no
one gets it
Chorus 1:
C
It's already overdue you
C/EEm
will not be heard by many now
Am
But I'll always be amazed
FGE/G#
be every sound your ever made
Post Chorus: AmDm x4
Verse 2:
AmG
While building a
DmCG
tolerance to them
FC
You made sorrow sound
G/BAm
like a good friend
G
The well where the
DmCG
poison pen was drawn
F
The same place you
CG/B
trusted then but
F
was gone Enemies
GE/G#
battled in your mind
Am
Until all the blood
G
shed leaked down
F
Dried up and
Fm(hold)
rusted the fight
Chorus 2:
C
It's already overdue you
C/EEm
will not be heard by many now
Am
But I'll always be amazed
FG
be every sound your ever made
C
And since I did not know you
C/EEm
I can only say but a few words
Am
Too bad they won't hear your song
FG
that I've been singing all alone
Outro: Spoken
