Verse
G# G#maj7
If I showed you my teardrops
C#maj7 C#m
would you collect them like rain.
F# D#m
Would you store them in jars
A#7 G#7 G#m7
that are labelled with „pain“.
[Verse 2]
G# G#maj7
Would you follow their tracks
C#maj7 C#m
from my eyes down my cheeks
F# D#m
As they write all the stories
A#7 G#7 G#m7
I´m so frightened to speak.
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
Would you hold my face gently
Fm A#m
as you dry both of my eyes.
F#m C#maj7
And kindly whisper the words
G# D# D#m
„you´re much too precious to cry“.
[Verse 3]
G# G#maj7
Would you stop them with kisses
C#maj7 C#m
bring there flow to a halt.
F# D#m
As you teach me that pain
A#7 G#7 G#m7
couldn´t always be my fault.
[Verse 4]
G# G#maj7
If I showed you my teardrops.
C#maj7 C#m
would you show me your own
F# D#m
And learn though we´re lonely,
A#7 G#7 G#m7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
Would you hold my face gently
Fm A#m
as you dry both of my eyes.
F#m C#maj7
And kindly whisper the words
G# D# D#m
„you´re much too precious to cry“.
[Verse 5]
G# G#maj7
If I showed you my teardrops.
C#maj7 C#m
would you show me your own
F# D#m
And learn though we´re lonely,
A#7 G#7 G#m7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
[Outro]
F# D#m
And learn though we´re lonely,
A#7 G#7 G#m7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
