We Can Only Listen Ukulele chords by Ruth Moody

G
Nothing's working for me today
G                               Em
Maybe I'll go for a walk in the rain
G
I'm soaking wet but my heart's on fire
G                           Em
I can't show it but I'm all desire

C      D               C
Fox in throat, hand in sleeve
           D               G
We try and ask for what we need

G
Getting lost in all the one-way streets
G                        Em
Keep on walking until we meet

G
I never know just what to say
G                             Em
I only remember when you walk away

C       D            C
Word in hand, rubber lips
          D                   G
we let it fall from our fingertips

Chorus:
D                            G
We cannot choose the ones we love
G                             C
When our hearts they speak so loudly
            D                   G
We can only listen, we can only listen

Bm Em C D

G
Would it be easier beneath the sun
                             Em
Where apples fall and rivers run


G
And I'd be lying there next to you
                            Em
In the silence it all comes through


C           D                C
And then we wouldn't have to speak


          D               G
All you'd hear is my heartbeat


Chorus:
D                            G
We cannot choose the ones we love
G                             C
When our hearts they speak so loudly
            D                   G
We can only listen, we can only listen
