Verse: 
 
Em 
In a matter of speaking 
I just want to say 
Cmaj7 
That I could never forget the way 
Am 
You told me everything 
          B7 
By saying nothing 
 
Em 
In a matter of speaking 
I don't understand 
Cmaj7 
How love in silence becomes reprimand 
Am 
But the way I feel about you 
   B7 
Is beyond words 

 
Refrão -------------
Em      Cmaj7 
Oh give me the words 
     Am 
Give me the words 
     B7 
That tell me nothing 
Em      Cmaj7 
Oh give me the words 
     Am 
Give me the words 
     B7 
That tell me everything
--------------------
 
(Continues The Same) 
 
In a matter of speaking 
Semantics won't do 
In this life that we live 
We only make do 
And the way that we feel 
Might have to be sacrificed 
 
So in a matter of speaking 
I just want to say 
That like you I should find a way 
To tell you everything 
By saying nothing 
 
Oh give me the words 
Give me the words 
That tell me nothing 
Oh give me the words 
Give me the words 
Give me the words 
Give me the words 
Give me the words
