Verse 1:
D                                                             G
A change in your voice was all that I heard 
C                    D                                G (Fill 1)
A quavering breath a pause in a word 
D                                                           G
A shadow that suddenly covered my eyes 
    C          D                                           G C G
A ripple of water quite smooth otherwise 

 
1st chorus:
F C                   Am         C           F   
You try to go back and pave over the hole 
        C                Am                  C                       G
Where an intake of breath had punctured my soul 
           F                                                G       
Let me know let me know I need to know 


Verse 2:
D                                                             G
A moment of silence, it now seems absurd
C                      D                                                 G (Fill 1)
That I learned so much, from a pause in her words.
D                                                                  G
Every bird on the wing, leads the others along
    C          D                                                        G C G
Inside your flock of words, something went wrong.


2nd chorus:
F C                   Am         C           F          
I donÌt think that I was expecting a lot
        C                Am                C                 G
I just saw them pass me and one couldn't fly
           F                                         G                
Let me go, let me know, I need to go

   G                              F
