The Silence

Capo: 2nd fret (I've seen him place the capo on the 4th or 5th fret, place it wherever you're comfortable) G Em I remember a conversation, at a restaurant C With a friend of mine, he?d a successful mind G D And he told me of his life G And the plans he?d made to come this far Em C Had gone so well and now we?re all so proud of him And he told me how G D But I couldn?t bear to listen (G) Cause all my life I?ve heard Of the (Em) dreams of the organized C To be the best in the company G D To win the awards but that?s not me G Em Cause all my life all I ever wanted C G Was a love that lasted longer than the silence G Em All my life, all my life C G Was a love that lasted longer than the silence G I had to say that I had to leave Em Cause it was on my mind C That all he set in me were insecurities G D But that dream was never mine G Cause the plans I thought I?d made so far Em C Had gone alright but all that I feel now is doubt And he told me why G D But I couldn?t bear to listen G Cause all my life I?ve heard Em Of the dreams of the organized C To be the best in the company G D To win the awards but that?s not me G Em Cause all my life all I ever wanted C G Was a love that lasted longer than the silence G Em All my life, all my life C G Was a love that lasted longer than the silence
