If I Only Had The Words (To Tell You) Chords

(ver. 1)
Billy Joel
If I Only Had the Words (To Tell You)

		   D E A   D E A   C E7
		   Intro

		         A	       A/C#     D	   
		   If I only had the words to tell you
		A/C#	   Bm7			   G7	  E7
		   If you only had the time to understand
		   	     A	             A/C#     	   D	     
		   Though I know it wouldn’t change your feelings
		 A/C#	  Bm7	           E7		    A  C  E7
		   And I know you’ll carry on the best you can

			A	      A/C#     D	   
		   If I only had the urge to tell you
		A/C#	   Bm7			       G7	  E7
		   If you only knew how hard it is to say
		   		A	      A/C#     	   D	     
		   When the simple lines have all been taken
		 A/C#	     Bm7    E7		     A       G7
		   And the radio repeats them every day

		         C	        C/E     F	   
		   If I never find the song to sing you
		C/E	   Dm7			   Bb7	     G7
		   If you always find it hard to comprehend
		   	     C	               C/E     	   F	     
		   Well you know there wouldn’t be much meaning
		 C/E  Dm7	      	     G7		   C
		   If I had to sing those tired words again

		   E7  Am	E7     Am	   
		   Life... goes on and on
			   G     C 	G	 C
		   And tonight... will soon be gone
		   	     Fmaj7  Em7	     
		   But if we try
		 	      Dm7   Gsus4 G Gsus2 G
		   We can be sure

		        C	      C/E       F	   
		   If I only had the words to tell you
		C/E	   Dm7			   Bb7	     G7
		   If you only had the time to understand
		   	 C	         C/E      F	     
		   But I only have these arms to hold you
		 C/E  	    Dm7	             G7	         C      F G
		   And it’s all that you can ask of any man

		   C    F         Bb   Dm       G	   
		   Laa laa la la la   laa la la la

		REPEAT LAST VERSE
