But the words don't come,
N.C. And I don't know what to say [Verse 1]
Am                       C7
I should tell you, ..."I love you, I do!"

   D7                           E4          E
My words should explain, but my words don't come,

Am                     C7   
I shouldn't hide ...my love deep inside,

   D7                           E4          E
My words should explain, but my words don't come

But the words don't come,
N.C. And I don't know what to say [Verse 2]
Am                   C7
If I can find ...the words in my mind,

    D7                           E4          E
The words could explain, but the words won't come,

Am                       C7
If you can't see ...what you mean to me,

   D7                           E4          E
My words should explain, but my words won't come

For the F to F6 chords use the thumb to play the low F on the 6th string and have an open 5th string. Another option, play the chords on the top 4 strings and use your index finger to play the bass notes. ===================================================== For the closest chord box diagrams to my chord legend suggestions you will need to manually select the following options by clicking on the forward/backward arrows beneath each diagram... F <2 of 16> E4 <3 of 25> A4 <2 of 21> F6 <2 of 28> G4 <15 of 20> Am9 <3 of 16> All the other chord boxes should be the default first option and don't need reselecting
