Softer Than A Whisper

C  G  D  G     C  G  Em C  D  G


[Verse]

C             G          D      
I’ve often wondered how love 
               G
would strike me dead
          C            G      C  
Would it hit me like thunder 
         D     G
that’s what I’d expect
           C         G            
But when I held you, I knew it was
  D                    G
 different from the start
C               G            C  
No words were spoken, but I felt
     D      G
 it in my heart


[Chorus]

          C           G        D 
It was softer than a whisper 
          G
quiet as the moon

             C               G  
But I could hear it loud as 
Em     C         D       G
laughter  ’cross a crowded room
          C         G             
It was gentle as a baby’s hand, 
      D              Em
but it held me like a chain
         C            G  Em       
It was softer than a whisper when 
 C          D       G
love called out my name

[Verse]

      C             G             
Last night you lay sleepin’ when I
  D                 G
 thought I heard a sound
      C       G      C      
I got up and slowly took a look 
D     G
around
        C        G          D    
Well I found no answer no sound I
        G
 could explain
              C         G          
It must have been your heart dear; 
C        D      G
calling out my name


[Chorus[

        C            G        D  
It was softer than a whisper 
         G
quiet as the moon
             C              G    
But I could hear it loud as 
Em   C        D       G
laughter ‘cross a crowded room
        C           G             
It was gentle as a baby’s hand, 
      D              Em
but it held me like a chain
        C            G  Em        
It was softer than a whisper when 
C           D       G
love called out my name
        C            G  Em        
It was softer than a whisper when 
 C           D      G
love called out my name
