I May Know The Word Chords

(ver. 1)
Natalie Merchant
Capo on 1st.
I hope you enjoy the song. 


D              E
I may know the word, 
        A   D   Bm
But not say it
              E
I may know the truth
        A    D
But not face it
D            E
I may hear a sound
    A                 D
A whisper, sacred & profound
D          E
But turn my head
F#m
Indifferent 


D            E
I may know the word
        A    D   Bm
But not say it
               E
I may love the fruit
        A     D
But not taste it
D             E
I may know the way
     A
To comfort & to soothe
          D
A worried face
D           E
But fold my hands
F#m
Indifferent 


F#m
If I'm on my knees
D
I'm begging now
F#m
If I'm on my knees
D
Groping in the dark
F#m                  E
I'd be praying for deliverance
          D             E

             A     D
But it's all gray here
             A      D
But it's all gray here
          A    F#m
It's all gray to me 


D                E
I may know the word
        A    D   Bm
But not say it
              E
This may be the time
            A      D
But I might waste it
D               E
This may be the hour
A    
Something move me
                 D
Someone prove me wrong
D            E
Before night comes
F#m
With indifference 

F#m
If I'm on my knees
D
I'm begging now
F#m
If I'm on my knees
D
Groping in the dark
F#m                 E
I'd be praying for deliverance
          D            E

F#m
If I'm on my knees
D
I'm begging now
F#m
If I'm on my knees
D
Groping in the dark
F#m                 E
I'd be praying for deliverance
          D            E


             A     D
But it's all gray here
             A     D
But it's all gray here
         A      F#m
It's all gray to me 

F#m :
I recognize the walls inside
I recognize them all
I've paced between them
Chasing demons down
Until they fall
In fitful sleep
Enough to keep their strength
Enough to crawl
Into my head
With tangled threads
They riddle me to solve 

Again & again & again

Song ends with a variation of:
F#m – E – D
