"Silence" - John Gorka 1991 from the CD "Jack's Crows"

Capo on 4th fret

C                G                   F   
I met her in the summertime when her arms

G                    C
  Were the color of silence

G             F
  So blue her eyes

G          C     G   F
  A new horizon

     G               F
So I walked that way

      G                   F
And I talked that way too

     G             F      G           
And I found my way through

       C       G  F  G
To her silence, whoa  

       C        G  F  G
To her silence, whoa


   C                 G             F    G
My heart was full of bitterness so dark

                C         G
And so close to violence

           F
The ace of spades 

       G            F
Turned upside down

        G                   F
Nothing beat in my hopeless chest

       G                  F
I could not detect a sound
  
        G                F  
But she would not let me rest

   G        C        G  F
Bound to my silence, whoa 

            C        G   F          
Bound to my silence, whoa


C             G                     F
Love came unexpectedly, late to the bill

G           C        G
An added attraction

           F         G            F
The way it goes, the way it stays

         G             F
And when she is far away

G                F
Still I feel her here

      G                 F  
Ever since she made the day
  
        G            F       G  
And the lonely man disappear

          C        G  F 
Into that silence, whoa

          C        G  F  G  C
Into that silence, whoa
