Guitar chords with lyrics

Abm   F#6    E               B
Still waters always run so deep
Abm             F#6
I've heard you cry in the night
E             B
And talk in your sleep

Bm           A
Why would you want to
G              F#m
Keep it all inside?
G            A
Now you're alone
     B  (Bass line goes from AB (B7B)
With nothing but your pride
🎸

Esus4 A    E6  E                  B
       If only you'd listened to me
      F#m            Bsus4/E
Cos I still want you now
E                   B
 I don't want to be free
Esus4 A    E6  E                 B
       If only you listened to me
      F#m            Bsus4/E
Cos I still feel the loss
E                   B
And it won't let me be
A                     B
oh no it won’t let me be


Abm           F#6    E              B
   I've tried talking long into the night
Abm                  F#6
    but nothing that I tried to say
E               B
  Ever came out right

Bm                     A
   There's no point in crying
G               F#m
  My tears have run dry
G            A          B  (Bass line goes from AB (B7B)
 I hope that you're satisfied


Esus4 A    E6  E                  B
       If only you'd listened to me
      F#m            Bsus4/E
Cos I still want you now
E                   B
 I don't want to be free
Esus4 A    E6  E                 B
       If only you listened to me
      F#m            Bsus4/E
Cos I still feel the loss
E                   B
And it won't let me be
A                     B
oh no it won’t let me be
