Tom: Am
Am Am/G
In a manner of speaking I just want to say
Am/G Am/F
That I could never forget the way
Am/F E E7
You told me everything by saying nothing
Am Am/G
In a manner of speaking I don't understand
Am/G Am/F
How love in silence becomes reprimand
Am/F E E7
But the way that i feel about you is beyond words
[Chorus]
Am Am/G
Oh give me the words
Am/G Am/F
Give me the words
Am/F E E7
But tell me nothing
Am Am/G
Ohohohoh give me the words
Am/G Am/F
Give me the words
Am/F E E7
That tell me everything
[Verse]
Am Am/G
In a manner of speaking semantics won't do
Am/G Am/F
In this life that we live we only make do
Am/F E E7
And the way that we feel might have to be sacrified
Am Am/G
So in a manner of speaking I just want to say
Am/G Am/F
That just like you I should find a way
Am/F E E7
To tell you everything by saying nothing
[Chorus]
Am Am/G
Oh give me the words (In a manner of speaking I just want to say)
Am/G Am/F
Give me the words (That like you I should try and find a way)
Am/F E E7
But tell me nothing (To tell you everything by saying nothing)
Am Am/G
Ohohohoh give me the words (In a manner of speaking semantics won't do)
Am/G Am/F
Give me the words (In this life that we live we only make do)
Am/F E E7
Give me the words (And the things that we feel might have to be sacrified)
[Outro]
Am
Oh give me the words
Am
Give me the words
Am
Give me the words
