Intro: C G D G C G C D G
C G D G
I’ve often wondered... how love would strike me dead
C G C D G
Would it head me like thunder... that’s what I’d expect
C G D G
But when I held you, I knew...it was different from the start
C G C D G
No words were spoken...but I felt it in my heart
C G D G
It was softer than a whisper...quiet as the moon
C G C D G
But I could hear it loud as laughter...’cross a crowded room
C G D Em
It was gentle as a baby’s hand...but it held me like a chain
C G Em C D G
It was softer than a whisper...when love called out my name
C G C D G
C G D G
Last night you laid sleeping...and I thought I heard a sound
C G C D G
I got up and slowly ...took a look around
C G D G
Well I found no answer...no sound I could explain
C G C D G
It must have been your heart dear...calling out my name
C G D G
It was softer than a whisper...quiet as the moon
C G C D G
But I could hear it loud as laughter...’cross a crowded room
C G D Em
It was gentle as a baby’s hand...but it held me like a chain
C G Em C D G
It was softer than a whisper...when love called out my name
C G Em C D G
It was softer than a whisper...when love called out my name
