[(intro) ]D G 

I've never been the one to shout because I listen 
I don't like to raise my voice 
Maybe I should learn to lose my inhibitions 
and let my feelings make some noise 
Am                      G                        D 
You don't know what I'm going through 
Am                      G               D 
When silence is all I give to you 


[Refrão]
Em               C 
So hear me, if you're out there 
G                                     D 
Take these words and try to understand 
Em                           C                      G           D 
That I want you, and I need you, to take the hand of a quiet man 

D G 
I love the way you hear the words unspoken 
It's like you read between the minds 
You know before the silence has been broken 
Well, at least most of the time 
Am                        G               D 
But I don't know what you're going through 
Am                             G        D 
It must be something I didn't say to you 

(Refrão) 
Em               C 
So hear me, if you're out there 
G                                          D 
Take these words and try to understand 
Em                           C                      G           D 
That I want you, and I need you, to take the hand of a quiet man 
Of a quiet man 

(solo) Em C G D) 

(Refrão) 

Em               C 
So hear me, if you're out there 
G                                          D 
Take these words and try to understand 
Em                   C                  G                           D 
That I want you, and I need you, to take the hand of a quiet man 
Of a quiet man
