Verse:

C majorC       G+G     D MajorD           G+G
I’ve often wondered how love would strike me dead
     C majorC      G+G   C majorC      D MajorD   G+G
Would it hit me like thunder that’s what I’d expect
      C majorC     G+G       D MajorD          G+G
But when I held you, I knew it was different from the start
C majorC        G+G      C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
No words were spoken, but I felt it in my heart

Chorus:

     C majorC      G+G    D MajorD      G+G
It was softer than a whisper quiet as the moon
       C majorC        G+G E minorEm   C majorC     D MajorD    G+G
But I could hear it loud as laughter ’cross a crowded room
     C majorC     G+G          D MajorD       E minorEm
It was gentle as a baby’s hand, but it held me like a chain
     C majorC      G+G E minorEm    C majorC     D MajorD    G+G
It was softer than a whisper when love called out my name

   C majorC       G+G        D MajorD         G+G
Last night you lay sleepin’ when I thought I heard a sound
   C majorC    G+G   C majorC   D MajorD   G+G
I got up and slowly took a look around
    C majorC    G+G     D MajorD      G+G
Well I found no answer no sound I could explain
       C majorC     G+G     C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
It must have been your heart dear; calling out my name


[Chorus[

    C majorC      G+G    D MajorD      G+G
It was softer than a whisper quiet as the moon
       C majorC       G+G  E minorEm  C majorC    D MajorD    G+G
But I could hear it loud as laughter ‘cross a crowded room
    C majorC      G+G          D MajorD       E minorEm
It was gentle as a baby’s hand, but it held me like a chain
    C majorC      G+G E minorEm    C majorC      D MajorD    G+G
It was softer than a whisper when love called out my name
    C majorC      G+G E minorEm     C majorC      D MajorD   G+G
