Secret Chords

[Intro]
 
C   G/B   Am   C G
C   G/B   Am   G F
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G                       E7
  We lead two different lives
     Am             G    F     G
Just like two lines that never cross
G                   E7
  And here we are together
Am          G   F       G
Standing closer than we are
G                 E7-9      Am     F
  But we're still standing here untouched
G               E7-9
  Too scared to make a move
C/E            F
    We want so much to touch
    C/G             C/G G
And we can't wait forever
C/E              F
    We know it's dangerous
    C/G         G
For us to be together
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C           G               Am
  How do we ever keep this secret
          F       G       C
How do we keep it in the dark
           G                 Am
And if we dare to taste our weakness
             F        G       C
How could we tear ourselves apart
           G               Am
Why do we keep this love together
           F         G        C
Didn't we know right from the start
               G                 Am
That we would have to keep this secret
      F     G    C
Or forever stay apart
 
 
[Verse 2] (same as verse 1)
 
I watch you coming to me
Walking in the pouring rain
I can't help looking at you
Wishing I could stay away
So many times I've tried in vain
To close my eyes and pray it goes away
But I can't stop myself from feeling
To let you go would be too much
For me to take
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C           G               Am
  How do we ever keep this secret
          F       G       C
How do we keep it in the dark
           G                 Am
And if we dare to taste our weakness
             F        G       C
How could we tear ourselves apart
           G               Am
Why do we keep this love together
           F         G        C
Didn't we know right from the start
               G                 Am
That we would have to keep this secret
      F     G   C
Or forever stay apart

It's so hard to hide
