[G]I went through old [C]letters that you [G]wrote me
And [C]followed your [G]words to the [D]bottom of the page
To [G]find all the things that you [C]tried to [G]show me
[C]Months [G]ago at the [D]bottom of the [G]page
[G]All the words that [C]I once [G]knew
Oh, I [C] gave to [G]you, yes I [C] gave to [G]you
And all of the words that I [C]want to [G]know
Have [C]dried up [G]in the [C]back of my t[G]hroat
[G]I set sail ac[C]ross your [G]words
Hoping [C]never to find [G]shore, n[C]ever to find sh[G]ore
And in the ocean of ink, I s[C]tarted to [G]sink
Be[C]fore your w[G]ords filled my l[D]ungs with breath [G]again
[G] There in the light of the e[C]vening city s[G]ky
The ye[C]llows and p[G]inks tell my h[D]eart to think
And my [G]mind to feel this [C]love that is r[G]eal
And to [C]let my lips [G]say at last ev[D]erything you [G]mean
So I [G]whisper slow, three w[C]ords you already [G]know
And the m[C]arching [G]band falls in l[D]ine
And the s[C]ymphony l[D]eads your lips to m[G]ine!
