[Verse]
Cmaj7 Am7
I never dreamed that you
Dm7 G7
Would feel the way I do
Em7 Am7 Gm7 C7
I thought that I would know just what say
Fmaj7 Fm6 Em7 Em7b5
But suddenly my voice is feeling very weak
Dm7 G7 G7
If only my heart could speak
[Verse]
Cmaj7 Am7
Your making me confused
Dm7 G7
I'm puzzled and bemused
Em7 Am Gm7 C7
I'm fuddled, heart's been puddled by the thought
Fmaj7 Fm6
That we're more than just a fling
Em7 Em7b5
Where did I put that ring?
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
If only my heart could sing
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Gbmaj7b5
If what was in my chest could be expressed
Em7 Am7
You'd understand my view
Fmaj7 Dm7 D7
But I could never teach myself the speech
G7
To say how much I love you

[Verse]
Cmaj7 Am7
I didn't have the time
Dm7 G7
To think of any rhymes
Em7 Am Gm7 C7
Not a poet and I know it all too well
Fmaj7 Fm6 Em7 Em7b5
I'll try to find the words, they're playing hide and seek
[Verse]

If only my heart could speak

If only my heart
Cmaj7
could speak
