Intro (Finger picked)
FF DmDm FF DmDm
Verse (Finger picked)
FF DmDm
Well surely there's time to deal another hand
FF DmDm
You can turn off the lights, if you need
G minorGm C majorC
I'm curious to know if we could still dance
G minorGm C majorC
With this elaborate pain in our knees
FF DmDm
And surely there's a will to cut off these ropes
FF DmDm
That bound us like prisoners, between
G minorGm C majorC
The curious ghosts and the fearless hopes
G minorGm C majorC
We might have to come close to cut free
Chorus (Finger Picked)
FF
But no one need know
DmDm
No one need know
G minorGm
No one need know, but me...
FF
No one need know
DmDm
No one need know
G minorGm
No one need know, but me
Verse (Finger Picked)
FF DmDm
Surely you know, the hand's not at fault
FF DmDm
And the beast is not always best tamed
G minorGm C majorC
We both learn so young, how to spill to much salt
G minorGm C majorC
Through the wounds of this elaborate game
Chorus (Finger Picked)

But no one need know

No one need know, but me...

No one need know
DmDm
No one need know
G minorGm
No one need know, but me

Hmm hmm hmm, what have we got, to lose if we have nothing at all?
DmDm
Nothing at all...
A minorAm A#A# B#/A#
You hold on to your bruises way past the fall
G minorGm A minorAm A#A#
When you get off the train, I'm not here to complain
B#/A# G minorGm
I wouldn't change you at all
A minorAm A#A#
There's still much to learn, and I think it's your turn
B#/A#
So when your ready, you can
(Begin strumming)
FF DmDm
Come over slow, and dance till we don't
G minorGm C majorC
And no one need know but me
Ooooh

Come over slow, we'll watch it unfold
G minorGm C majorC
And no one need know, but me

Come over slow, come over slow, no one need know, but me
(Agressive and angry palm muting)
FF DmDm
Well let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
FF DmDm
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, ohh

Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
FF DmDm
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
G minorGm C majorC
Let it go, let it go, just let it go
