He said
C
There's nothing like your smile
G D C
Sort of subtle and perfect and real
G D
He said
C
You never knew how wonderful
G D C
That smile could make someone feel
G D
And he knew
C
Whenever you get bored
G D C
You scribble stars on the cuffs of your jeans
D
And he noticed
C
That you still fill out the quizzes
G D C
That they put in those teen magazines
Em A7 D7
But he kept it all inside his head
Em A7 D
What he saw he left unsaid
C
And though he wanted to
G
He couldn't talk to you
D
He couldn't find the way
D7
But he would always say

[Refrão]
C G
If I could tell her
D D7
Tell her everything I see
C G
If I could tell her
D
How she's everything to me
C G B7 Em
But we're a million worlds apart
C D
And I don't know how I would even start

If I could tell her
G D C
If I could tell her
G D
He thought
C
You looked really pretty, er
C
It looked pretty cool when you put
G D C
Indigo streaks in your hair
G D C
And he wondered how you learned to dance
G D C
Like all the rest of the world isn't there
Em A7 D D7
But he kept it all inside his head
Em A7 D
What he saw he left unsaid
