G  D/F#  Em7  D/F#


VERSE 1:

G    D/F#                    Em7      D/F#

In a book, in a box, in the closet

G    D/F#                    Em7      D/F#

In a line, in a song I once heard

Am                      G             D/F#

In a moment on a front porch late one June

Am                      G               D/F#

In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon


G        D/F#                  Em7      D/F#

There it was at the tips of my fingers

G        D/F#                  Em7      D/F#

There it was on the tip of my tongue

Am                       G             D/F#

There you were and I had never been that far

Am                         G                  D/F#

There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms

                 C     D/F#

And I let it all slip away


CHORUS:

G                 F

What do I do now that you're gone

C
No back up plan, no second chance

   Em              D/F#

And no one else to blame

G                     F              C

All I can hear in the silence that remains

        D/F#                       G  D/F#  Em7  D/F#
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

                     C            D/F#
