C

It's the [F]only [G]thing that the [F]whole [C]world [G]listens to.

C

When you [F]sin[C]g, [G] people under[C]stand.

C

Gets [C]lost between your heart and your [Am]mind, And the [F]words don't really [G]say the things you wanted them [C]to.

But then you [F]hear in someone's [G]song What you'd been [C]trying to say all [Am]along, And [F]somehow with the magic of music the message comes [G]through.

{c:Chorus.}

The longer I live, the more I find, That people seldom take the time To really get to know a stranger and make him a friend.

But the power of a simple song Can make everybody feel they belong. Maybe singing and playing can bring us together again.

{c:Chorus.}

That [F]mus[C]ic [G] speaks louder than [C]words.
