This song is so incredibly beautiful and I just needed a version that sounded like the actual song. This is
what I came up with using chordify. Hope it suits you the way it does me!
[Verse 1]
C
If I could speak to the breeze
What would she teach?
Bm
I'd ask politely for peace
Bm7
Or some guidance at least
Am7
Perhaps she'd tell me to leave
Bm7 Bm
Conceal the secrets in the air that I breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7
If I could speak to the sea
What would she preach?
C Bm7
I'd ask her what does it mean
Bm
To know the depths of belief?
Am7
Perhaps she'd guide me beneath
Bm
Reveal the meaning in the fathoms unseen
[Chorus]
G C
Then they'd say reality
Bm
Was never for me
G Am7
Reality
Bm7
Was never for me, never for me
[Verse 2]
Bm A C
If I could speak to the trees
What would they plea?
Bm
I'd watch the wind thieve their seeds
Lend them moments to grieve
Am7
Perhaps they'd bleed just like me
Bm7
Deliver their message in the words that I read
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm C
If I could speak to the leaves
Cmaj7
What would they heed?
C Bm7
I'd ask them what do they seek
Bm G
As they descend from the trees
Am7
Perhaps they'd rest at my feet
Bm7
Administer healing in the tea that I drink
[Chorus]
Bm G C
Then they'd say reality
Bm
Was never for me
Am7
Reality
Bm7 Bm C
Was never for me, never for me
[Verse 3]
Em
How am I to understand
D
Everything I am
C
If I don't look beyond the thoughts I have?
Em
Learning that it takes some time
D
To separate the mind
C
And I just wonder, now
Em
If all that I have ever known
D
Is all that I was ever shown
C
Questioning who sees behind these eyes
Em
Maybe if I find a reason
D
That lasts beyond the seasons
G C
I'd ask if reality
Bm
Was ever for me
Am7 Am
Reality (Ah-Oh)
Bm
Was never for me, never for me
[Outro]
C
If I could see the supreme
What would he think?
G
If he stood in front of me
Would I believe?
Bm Am
He'd ask me to take a seat
Pour us a drink
Bm
And show me all I could be
