[A] If I could [F#m] say the things I feel, [Bm] it wouldn't be [E] the same.

[A]
Though the words [F#] come hard to me, [Bm] I'll say them [F] just for you.

For this is something [F#m] rare for me, [A] this feeling is [E] so new.

[Dm] And when you say you [G] believe in me, there's [Am] so much [Bm] magic I [E] can do.
[A] Now you see [F#m] me, now you don't.
[Bm] Watch me [E] dive below, [A] deep down in [F#m] your love lake, [Bm] where the sweet fish [E] come and go.
[A] And I might sink, [F#m] and I might drown, [Bm] but death don't mean [F] a thing.
