Capo 3*
[Verse 1]
C
I wanna tell you you're beautiful,
F
In a way that you have not heard before,
C
But I don't think it's gonna work,
G C
Cause I'm not good with words.
C
I wanna tell you you're the reason why,
Am
The earth spins and the stars hang in the sky,
C F
But I don't think it's gonna fly,
Dm C
Cause I'm not good with words.
[Chorus]
Am F
If only I could find a way,
C G
To say it like them poets say,
Am F
Sing a sweet and simple serenade,
C C G
Directly to your heart.
Am F
If only I could speak aloud,
C G
Just what I feel when you're around,
Am F Dm
I'd finally confess my love in verse,
G C
But I'm not good with words.
C F
If I was just like Shakespeare,
C F
Whispering sweet sonnets in your ear,
C F
I'd tell you everything you want to hear,
G
But I'm not good with words.
Am F
If only I could find a way,
C G
To say it like them poets say,
Am F
Sing a sweet and simple serenade,
G
Directly to your heart.
Am F
If only I could speak aloud,
C G
Just what I feel when you're around,
Am F Dm
I'd finally confess my love in verse,
C F
But I'm not good with words.
F G
Sentences or conversation,
C F C G
Oh words they only bring me complication,
Em
And when it comes to love,
Am G F
I'm useless just full of bad excuses,
C Dm
And confessions gone unheard.
Am F
If only I could find a way,
C G
To say it like them poets say,
Am F
Sing a sweet and simple serenade,
C Dm
Directly to your heart.
Am F
If only I could speak aloud,
C G
Just what I feel when you're around,
Am F Dm
I'd finally confess my love in verse,
C G C
But I'm not good with words.
C F
