Intro: Am Am  G G  F F  C C  Gm Gm  F F  C C  Am Am  G G  F F  C C  Gm Gm  F F  C C

Gm Gm F F Gm Gm F F
You'll never see the courage I know
Gm Gm F F Gm Gm F F
Its colors' richness won't appear within your view

E E Dm Dm E E Dm Dm
I'll never glow - the way that you glow
Gm Gm F F E E
Dm Dm
Your presence dominates the judgments made on you

Am Am G G F F C C
But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
Am Am G G F F C C
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
Am Am G G F F C C
My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights
F F Dm Dm Am Am C C
I understand what I am still too proud to mention - to you

C C F F Am Am G G
You'll say you understand, but you don't understand
C C F F Am Am G G
You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye
F F Am Am G G Am Am
But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie

Em Em G G F F C C Gm Gm F F C C Am Am G G F F C C F F C C

Gm Gm F F Gm Gm F F
You'll never touch - these things that I hold
Gm Gm F F Gm Gm F F
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
E E Dm Dm E E Dm Dm
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
F F Dm Dm C C
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you

C C F F Am Am G G
You'll say, Don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems


C C F F Am Am G G
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
F F Am Am G G Am Am
But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie


G G F F C C Gm Gm F F C C Am Am G G F F C C Gm Gm F F C C

Gm Gm F F Gm Gm F F
You'll never live the life that I live
Gm Gm F F Gm Gm F F
I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
E E Dm Dm E E Dm Dm
You'll never hear the message I give

F F Dm Dm C C
You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

Am Am G G F F C C
But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
Am Am G G F F C C
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
Am Am G G F F C C
My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights
F F Dm Dm C C
I realize what I am now too smart to mention - to you

C C F F Am Am G G
You'll say you understand, you'll never understand
C C F F Am Am G G
I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why
C C F F Am Am G G
I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who I am
C C F F Am Am G G
You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry
F F Am Am G G F F G G Am Am G G F F
C C Am Am
But never is a pro - mise and I'll never need a lie
