In a book in a box in the clos et,
in a line in a song I once (Am)heard,
in a mo ment on a front porch late one June,
in a breath in side a whis per be neath the moon,
there it was at the tip of my fin gers.
There it was on the tip of my (Am)tongue.
There you were and I had nev er been that far.
There it was: the whole back world wrapped in side my arms,
and I let it all (F)slip a way.
(C)What do I do now that you’re gone?
No (F)back up plan, no sec ond chance and (Am)no one else to blame.
(C)All I can hear in the si lence that re mains
are the (F)words I could n’t say.
There’s a rain that ’ll nev er stop fall ing,
there’s a wall that I’ve tried to take (Am)down.
What I should ’ve said just would n’t pass my lips,
There so, I held whole back and now we’ve come to this,
and I and it it’s (F)too late now.
(C)What do I do now that you’re gone?
No (F)back up plan, no sec ond chance and (Am)no one else to blame.
(C)All I can hear in the si lence that re mains
are the (F)words I could n’t say.
(F)words I could n’t say.
I should have (Dm)found a way to tell you how I felt.
Now the on ly one I’m (F)tell in’ is my (G)self.
(F)words I could n’t say.
What do I do,
what do I say?
And (Am)no one else to blame.
(C)All I can hear in the si lence that re mains
are the (F)words I could n’t say.
