Softer Than a Whisper

Hal Ketchum

Capo 2nd fret

Intro: C G D G C G C D G

C G D G

I’ve often wondered... how love would strike me dead

C G C D G

Would it head me like thunder... that’s what I’d expect

C G D G

But when I held you, I knew...it was different from the start

C G C D G

No words were spoken...but I felt it in my heart

C G D G

It was softer than a whisper...quiet as the moon

C G C D G

But I could hear it loud as laughter...’cross a crowded room

C G D Em

It was gentle as a baby’s hand...but it held me like a chain

C G Em C D G

It was softer than a whisper...when love called out my name

C G C D G

C G D G

Last night you laid sleeping...and I thought I heard a sound

C G C D G

I got up and slowly ...took a look around

C G D G

Well I found no answer...no sound I could explain

C G C D G

It must have been your heart dear...calling out my name

C G D G

It was softer than a whisper...quiet as the moon

C G C D G

But I could hear it loud as laughter...’cross a crowded room

C G D Em

It was gentle as a baby’s hand...but it held me like a chain

C G Em C D G

It was softer than a whisper...when love called out my name

C G Em C D G

It was softer than a whisper...when love called out my name
