Verse
D Dmaj7
If I showed you my teardrops
Gmaj7 Gm
would you collect them like rain.
C Am
Would you store them in jars
E7 D7 Dm7
that are labelled with „pain“.
[Verse 2]
D Dmaj7
Would you follow their tracks
Gmaj7 Gm
from my eyes down my cheeks
C Am
As they write all the stories
E7 D7 Dm7
I´m so frightened to speak.
[Chorus]
Fm Cm
Would you hold my face gently
Bm Em
as you dry both of my eyes.
Cm Gmaj7
And kindly whisper the words
D A Am
„you´re much too precious to cry“.
[Verse 3]
D Dmaj7
Would you stop them with kisses
Gmaj7 Gm
bring there flow to a halt.
C Am
As you teach me that pain
E7 D7 Dm7
couldn´t always be my fault.
[Verse 4]
D Dmaj7
If I showed you my teardrops.
Gmaj7 Gm
would you show me your own
C Am
And learn though we´re lonely,
E7 D7 Dm7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
[Chorus]
Fm Cm
Would you hold my face gently
Bm Em
as you dry both of my eyes.
Cm Gmaj7
And kindly whisper the words
D A Am
„you´re much too precious to cry“.
[Verse 5]
D Dmaj7
If I showed you my teardrops.
Gmaj7 Gm
would you show me your own
C Am
And learn though we´re lonely,
E7 D7 Dm7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
[Outro]
C Am
And learn though we´re lonely,
E7 D7 Dm7
we´ll never ever be left alone.
