Verse
F Fmaj7
If I showed you my teardrops
A#maj7 A#m
would you collect them like rain.

Would you store them in jars
G7 F7 Fm7
that are labelled with „pain“.
[Verse 2]
F Fmaj7
Would you follow their tracks
A#maj7 A#m
from my eyes down my cheeks
D# Cm
As they write all the stories
G7 F7 Fm7
I´m so frightened to speak.
[Chorus]
G#m D#m
Would you hold my face gently
Dm Gm
as you dry both of my eyes.
D#m A#maj7
And kindly whisper the words
F C Cm
„you´re much too precious to cry“.
[Verse 3]
F Fmaj7
Would you stop them with kisses
A#maj7 A#m
bring there flow to a halt.
D# Cm
As you teach me that pain
G7 F7 Fm7
couldn´t always be my fault.
[Verse 4]
F Fmaj7
If I showed you my teardrops.

would you show me your own

And learn though we´re lonely,
G7 F7 Fm7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
[Chorus]
G#m D#m
Would you hold my face gently

as you dry both of my eyes.
D#m A#maj7
And kindly whisper the words
F C Cm
„you´re much too precious to cry“.
[Verse 5]

we´ll never ever be left alone.
