What You Heard

Intro:
H  G#m  E  H
H  G#m  E  H

Verse:
 H                                  G#m
We must look like a couple of strangers
  E                           H
Sitting in a quiet room
H                                           G#m
You've been studying the patterns on the carpet
E                                 H
I've been studying you
H                           G#m
You kept building higher walls
F#                         E
I kept busting through
 H                               G#m
We've been on this same road together
              E                                  H
But somehow got a different view

Chorus:
        E                                     F#
I thought I was telling you I love you
            E                                         F#
I thought I could make it up with words
              E                          F#
I was trying so hard to reach you
            H                 E/H            H
But that's not what you heard

Post-Chorus:
H  G#m  E  H
Oh-ohh

Verse 2:
         H                            G#m
I might sound like a broken old record
   E                                H
Needle stuck in the groove
H                                     G#m
Saying the same thing over and over
   E                                        H
Trying to get a message through
 H                                   G#m
Damn thesе words I've always trusted
F#                                  E
Wound up hurting you
          H                    G#m
It's only in the aftеrmath
                          E                       H
We see the damage they can do

Chorus: 2
        E                                     F#
I thought I was telling you I love you
            E                                         F#
I thought I could make it up with words
              E                          F#
I was trying so hard to reach you
            H                 E/H            H
But that's not what you heard
                    E                            F#
Now I'm feeling every mile between us
              E                        F#
And I wonder if I'll ever learn
                 E                               F#
That it doesn't matter how I mean it
                 H        E/H            H
If that's not what you heard

Post-Chorus:
H  G#m  E  H
Oh-ohh
H  G#m  E  H
Oh-ohh
H  G#m  E  H
Oh yeah
H  G#m  E  H
Oh-ohh

Chorus: 2
        E                                     F#
I thought I was telling you I love you
            E                                         F#
I thought I could make it up with words
              E                          F#
I was trying so hard to reach you
            H                 E/H            H
But that's not what you heard
                    E                            F#
Now I'm feeling every mile between us
              E                        F#
And I wonder if I'll ever learn
                 E                               F#
That it doesn't matter how I mean it
                G#m
If that's not what you heard

Outro:
               E                              F#
No, it doesn't matter how I mean it
               H       E                 H
If that's not what you heard

H  G#m  E  H
Oh yeah
H  G#m  E  H
Oh-ohh
