Intro: Am  G  F  C  Gm  F  C  Am  G  F  C  Gm  F  C

Gm              F          Gm        F

You'll never see the courage I know

Gm          F                     Gm                        F

Its colors' richness won't appear within your view

E            Dm     E                 Dm

I'll never glow - the way that you glow

Gm                  F                     E                              

Dm

Your presence dominates the judgments made on you

Am            G                          F        C

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights

Am                     G            F                     C

The shades and shadows undulate in my perception

Am             G                          F                          C

My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights

F                             Dm                         Am           C

I understand what I am still too proud to mention - to you

C                    F                 Am                G

You'll say you understand, but you don't understand

C                       F                    Am                G

You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye

F                    Am                       G                   Am

But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie

Em  G  F  C  Gm  F  C  Am  G  F  C   F  C

Gm              F         Gm                     F

You'll never touch - these things that I hold

Gm            F                   Gm                    F

The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own

E                 Dm  E              Dm

You'll never feel the heat of this soul

F                                 Dm                 C  

My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you

C                       F                          Am           G

You'll say, Don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems

C                       F                  Am                       G

You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high

F                    Am                       G                   Am

But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie

G   F  C  Gm  F  C  Am  G  F  C  Gm  F  C

Gm              F         Gm         F

You'll never live the life that I live

Gm        F                       Gm                     F

I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night

E                 Dm        E               Dm

You'll never hear the message I give

F                                         Dm                       C      

              

You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

Am            G                          F                    C

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights

Am                     G            F                     C

The shades and shadows undulate in my perception

Am             G                          F                          C

My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights

F                           Dm                      C

I realize what I am now too smart to mention - to you

C                F                  Am             G

You'll say you understand, you'll never understand

C                      F            Am                   G

I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why

C                 F                           Am                  G

I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who I am

C              F                        Am                  G

You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry

F                    Am   G                 F       G              Am  G  F

C  Am

But never is a pro - mise and I'll never need a lie
