Intro (Finger picked)
F Dm F Dm
Verse (Finger picked)
F Dm
Well surely there's time to deal another hand
F Dm
You can turn off the lights, if you need
Gm C
I'm curious to know if we could still dance
Gm C
With this elaborate pain in our knees
F Dm
And surely there's a will to cut off these ropes
F Dm
That bound us like prisoners, between
Gm C
The curious ghosts and the fearless hopes
Gm C
We might have to come close to cut free
Chorus (Finger Picked)
F
But no one need know
Dm
No one need know
Gm
No one need know, but me...
F
No one need know
Dm
No one need know
Gm
No one need know, but me
Verse (Finger Picked)
F Dm
Surely you know, the hand's not at fault
F Dm
And the beast is not always best tamed
Gm C
We both learn so young, how to spill to much salt
Gm C
Through the wounds of this elaborate game
Chorus (Finger Picked)
F
But no one need know
Dm
No one need know
Gm
No one need know, but me...
F
No one need know
Dm
No one need know
Gm
No one need know, but me
Bridge (Mostly strummed)
Dm Am A# F
Hmm hmm hmm, what have we got, to lose if we have nothing at all?
Dm
Nothing at all...
Am A# B#/A#
You hold on to your bruises way past the fall
Gm Am A#
When you get off the train, I'm not here to complain
B#/A# Gm
I wouldn't change you at all
Am A#
There's still much to learn, and I think it's your turn
B#/A#
So when your ready, you can
(Begin strumming)
F Dm
Come over slow, and dance till we don't
Gm C
And no one need know but me
Ooooh
F Dm
Come over slow, we'll watch it unfold
Gm C
And no one need know, but me
F Dm

Gm C(Open)
No one need know but me
F Dm
(Ad-lib vocals)
Gm C
No one need know but me
F Dm Gm C
No one need know, no one need know, no one need know, but me
F Dm Gm(P.M) C
Come over slow, come over slow, no one need know, but me
(Agressive and angry palm muting)
F Dm
Well let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
F Dm
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Gm C
Just let it go, let it go, let it...
Gm C
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, ohh
F Dm
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
F Dm
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Gm C
Let it go, let it go, just let it go
Gm C
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
