Words Fail (from Dear Evan Hansen) piano leadsheet with chords

I never meant to make it such a mess I never thought that it would go this far

So I just stand here sorry searching for something to say

something to say

Words fail Words fail

There's nothing I can say.

I guess...

I thought I could be part of this I never had this kind of thing before I never had that perfect girl who somehow could see the good part of me

I never had the dad who stuck it out

No corny jokes or baseball gloves

No mom who just was there,

'cause "Mom" was all that she had to be

That's not a worthy explanation I know there is none

Nothing can make sense of all these things I've done

Words fail Words fail there's nothing I can say except,

sometimes you see ev'rything you've wanted and sometimes

you see ev'rything you wish you had and it's right there,

right there, right there in front of you

And you want to believe it's true

So you make it true

And you think maybe ev'rybody wants it,

needs it a little bit too

This was just a sad invention

It wasn't real

I know But we were happy

I guess I couldn't let that go

I guess I couldn't give that up

I guess I wanted to believe

'Cause if I just believe

then I don't have to see

what's really there

No, I'd rather pretend I'm something better than these broken parts

Pretend I'm something other than this mess that I am 'Cause then I don't have to look at it and no one gets to look at it

No, no one can really see

'Cause I've learned to slam on the brake

Before I even turn the key,

Before I make

the mistake Before I lead with the worst of me

I never let them see the worst

of me.

'Cause what if ev'ryone saw?

What if ev'ryone knew?

Would they like what they saw?

Or would they hate it too?

Will I just keep on running away from what's true?

All I ever do is run

So how do I step in,

step into the sun?
