Lyrics
(G)If I nev er (Em)knew you,
(G)if I nev er felt this love,
(C)I would have no ink ling of
how (C)pre cious life can (D7sus)be.
And if I nev er (Em)held
you,
(G)I would nev er have a clue
(Am)how, at last, I’d (Cm)find in (Cm6)you
the miss ing (Bm)part of (C)me.
In this world so (Cmaj7)full of (D9)fear,
full of rage and (Cmaj7)lies,
(Bm7)I can see the truth so clear
(C)in your eyes,
so (D)dry your eyes.
And I’m so grate ful (Em)to you.
(G)I’d have lived my whole life through,
(Am7)lost for ev er
if I (C)nev er knew you.
(Am)There’s no mo ment (C)I re gret
(Am)since the mo ment (F)that we met.
(C)If our (Dm)time has (F)gone too fast I’ve lived at (G)last.
And (Db)if I nev er (Bbm)knew
you,
(Db)I’d have lived my (Fm7)whole life (Gbmaj7)through
(Ebm7)emp ty as the sky,
(Ebm7)nev er know ing (Gbmaj7)why,
(Bbm7)lost for ev er (Gb)if I (Ab7sus)nev er (Ab7)knew (Db)you.
