To get the true sound of the low notes on the
recording you can play this in Drop D tuning with
the capo or with no capo in E, but this is the
easiest way to play it and still works.

You sit in s[A]ilence [G]in the s[D]hadows

With a love that i[Bm]nspires me to [G]be [Em]everything you des[A]erve
Chorus:
Cause you're [D]my uns[D9]ung h[G]ero
And I k[D]now it's not easy[D/F#] to walk in y[A]our shoes

Now I [Em]sing this song of l[A]ove for [D]you

While others l[A]ong to s[G]teal the s[D]potlight

The love you g[G]ive comes n[A]aturall[D]y

And I s[Em]wear that I mean every w[A]ord
