Still waters always run so deep

I've heard you cry in the night

And talk in your sleep

Why would you want to
G F#m
Keep it all inside?
G A
Now you're alone

With nothing but your pride
Esus A E6 E B
If only you'd listened to me
F#m Bsus/E
Cos I still want you now
E B
I don't want to be free
Esus A E6 E B
If only you listened to me
F#m Bsus/E
Cos I still feel the loss
E B
And it won't let me be
A B
oh no it won’t let me be
Abm F#6 E B
I've tried talking long into the night
Abm F#6
but nothing that I tried to say
E B
Ever came out right
Bm A
There's no point in crying
G F#m
My tears have run dry
G A B (Bass line goes from A – B (B7 – B)
I hope that you're satisfied
Esus A E6 E B
If only you'd listened to me
F#m Bsus/E
Cos I still want you now
E B
I don't want to be free
Esus A E6 E B
If only you listened to me
F#m Bsus/E
Cos I still feel the loss
E B
And it won't let me be

oh no it won’t let me be
