[Intro] C G F C G F [Verse 1]
C   G
he said

F
there's nothing like your smile, sort of

  C           G          F
subtle, and perfect and real

 C   G
he said,

      F
you never knew how wonderful that 

  C           G           F
smile could make someone feel

    C   G
and he knew

    F
whenever you get bored you'd scribble 

     C            G             F
stars on the cuffs of your jeans

    C     G
and he noticed

           F
that you still fill out the quizzes that they

 C            G      F
put in those teen magazines
[Pre-chorus]
        Am      D
but he kept it all

   G        C
inside his head

         Am      D     G
what he saw, he left unsaid

                F
and though he wanted to,

             C
he couldn't talk to you,

                     G
he couldn't find the way,

                     G7
but he would always say,
[Chorus]
            F    C
if I could tell her

          Am           G
tell her everything I see

             F   C
if I could tell her

           Am           G
how she's everything to me,

      F       C       E7    Am
but we're a million worlds apart

    F                              G
and I don't know how I would even start,

             C     G    F
If I could tell her

             C     G    F
if I could tell her
[Interlude] C G F C G F [Verse 2]
 C   G
He  thought

F
you looked really pretty- eh erm,

F
it looked pretty COOL, when you put

  C          G             F
indigo streaks in your hair

    C      G
and he wondered

   F
how you learned to dance like all the 

 C           G         F
rest of the world isn't there
[Pre-chorus]
        Am      D
but he kept it all

   G        C
inside his head

         Am      D     G
what he saw, he left unsaid
[Chorus]
            F    C
if I could tell her

          Am           G
tell her everything I see

             F   C
if I could tell her

           Am           G
how she's everything to me,

      F       C       E7    Am
but we're a million worlds apart

    F                              G
and I don't know how I would even start,

             C     G    F
if I could tell her
[Bridge]
            Ab
if I could tell her

                Eb                         Ab
but what do you do, when there's this great divide?

                Eb           Ab
(zoey: he just seems so far away...)

                Eb                            Bb
and what do you do, when the distance is too wide?
(zoey: it's like I don't know anything)
     Eb
and how do you say,

   Ab
I love you

   Ab
I love you

   Ab
I love you

   Ab
I love you
[Outro]
      Ab       Eb     Bb     Cm
but we're a million worlds apart

     Ab              Eb            Bb
and I don't know how I would even start

            Eb    Bb  Cm  Ab
if I could tell her
