Three Words chords by Lennie Gallant

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
C majorC
I wanted to give you something to show the way I feel

But a rose won’t last near long enough
G+G
And for a diamond I’d have to steal
C majorC                     FF
I hope you won’t feel cheated because the gift is not brand new
C majorC                   G+G
I wrapped it up inside this song, it’s for no one else but you

Chorus:
        FF          C majorC
Three well worn words, stained with tears
     FF          C majorC
Well worn words that conquered fear
    A minorAm        C majorC
Used a million times in verse and rhyme
     FF           G+G
Yet they never reach everyone’s ears
        FF          C majorC
Three well worn words soaked by the rain
     FF           C majorC    G/BG/B
Well worn words full of joy and pain
A minorAm           C majorC
Thrown to the wind of a thousand storms
   FF
They float back home again

Verse 2:
     C majorC
There’s a softness in your pretty face

When the morning light creeps in

I search for the things to whisper to you
   G+G
But I don’t know where to begin
C majorC
Maybe you’ve heard them before
FF
Maybe I’ve heard them too
C majorC
But an old guitar plays the sweetest music
     G+G
When the chords that you play are true

Chorus:
        FF          C majorC
Three well worn words, stained with tears
     FF          C majorC
Well worn words that conquered fear
    A minorAm        C majorC
Used a million times in verse and rhyme
     FF           G+G
Yet they never reach everyone’s ears
        FF          C majorC
Three well worn words soaked by the rain
     FF           C majorC    G/BG/B
Well worn words full of joy and pain
A minorAm           C majorC
Thrown to the wind of a thousand storms
   FF
They float back home again

Verse 3:
    C majorC
At the back of a dresser drawer

Where the daylight couldn’t get through

At the bottom of an old love letter
    G+G
That I always meant to send to you
        C majorC
