If I Never Knew You

(G)If I never (Em)knew you,

(G)if I never felt (Em)this love,

(C)I would have no (Am7)inkling of

how (C)precious life can (D7sus)be.

(G)And if I never (Em)held you,

(G)I would never have (Em7)a clue

(Am)how, at last,

I'd (Cm)find in (Cm6)you (Em9)the missing (Bm)part of (C)me.

(Am6)In this world so (Cmaj7)full of (D9)fear,

(Am6)full of rage and (Cmaj7)lies,

(Bm7)I can see (B7)the truth (Em11)so clear

(C)in your eyes,

so (D)dry your eyes.

(G)And I'm so grateful (Em)to you.

(G)I'd have lived my whole life through,

(Am7)lost (G)forever (C)if I never knew you.

(Bb)If I never (Gm)knew you, (Bb)I'd be safe but half (Gm)as real,

(Eb)never knowing I (Bb)could feel

(Cm)a (Eb)love so strong and (F7sus)true.

(Bb)I'm so grateful (Gm)to you.

(Bb)I'd have lived my whole life (Eb)through,

(Cm7)lost (Bb)forever (Eb)if I never knew (F)I thought our love would be so beautiful.

(Dm7)Somehow we'd make the whole world bright.

(F)I (Gm7)never knew (F)that fear and (Ebmaj7)hate could be so (Bb)strong,

all they'd (Gm)leave us were these (Dm7)whispers in the (Eb)night,

but (Cm9)still my heart is (Dm7)saying we were (Eb)right.

Oh.

(Am)There's no moment (C)I regret (Am)nevsince the moment (F)that we met.

(Dm)If our time has (F)gone too fast I've lived be.

at last.

(G)I thought (Fmaj7)our love (G)would be (F)so beautiful,

(Em7)somehow we'd make the whole world bright.

(G)I thought (Fmaj7)our love (G)would be (F)so beautiful,

(Em7)we'd turn the darkness into (G)light.

(C)And (Dm7)still my heart is (Em7)saying we were (F)right.

(Ebm7)We were right.

And (Db)if I never (Bbm)knew I you,

er knew (Db)I'd you, have my (Fm7)whole life (Gbmaj7)through (Ebm7)empty as (Fm7)the sky,

(Ebm7)nev er (Fm7)knowing (Gbmaj7)why, (Bbm7)lost (Db)forever (Gb)if I (Ab7sus)never (Ab7)knew (Db)you.
