[Verse 1]
G
I glued back together the broken 
pieces of a vase you found
   Am
Out back of some old abandoned 
church in a town I don't remember 
the name
      G
In the middle of May when you came 
to meet my family
               Am
And we wrecked blueberries into 
buckets, and I drove reckless in the
 rain
                  G
And it wasn't the slightest bit 
romantic
                              Am
I guess that's what makes it so

I can't say how much you mean to me


[Chorus]
G                                 
 Up on a mountaintop, down by the 
           Am
dark blue sea

I can't say how much you mean to me
G                                 
 Open my mouth to talk, but I can 
          Am
hardly speak

I can't say


[Verse 2]
G
Sitting on a window, a bluebird on 
it, nothing in it
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
           Am
There's a piece we never found

But I think that's what makes it 
perfect
          G
And so to put it into words, I can't
 put into words
          Am
No, I can't say it, how much you 
mean to me


[Chorus]
G                                 
 Up on a mountaintop, down by the 
           Am
dark blue sea

I can't say how much you mean to me
G                                 
 Open my mouth to talk, but I can 
          Am
hardly speak

I can't say
G                                 
 There's something in your eyes, a
                 Am
 secret I must keep

I can't say how much you mean to me
G                      
 Like trying to describe 
             Am
impossibility

I can't say

[Bridge]
G
Some might say "euphoric"

No, there's really no words for it
         Am
When a smile grows across your face
     D
Like pieces of a broken vase
Am               D      G
Everything falls into place


[Interlude]

[Chorus]
G                                 
 Up on a mountaintop, down by the 
           Am
dark blue sea

I can't say how much you mean to me
G                                 
 Open my mouth to talk, but I can 
          Am
hardly speak

I can't say
G                                 
 There's something in your eyes, a
                 C
 secret I must keep

I can't say how much you mean to me
G                      
 Like trying to describe 
             Am
impossibility
