Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x2

I've never been the one to shout because I listen

I don't like to raise my voice

But maybe I should learn to lose my inhibitions

And let my feelings make some noise

'Cos you don't know what I'm going through

When silence is all I give to you

So hear me, if you're out there

Take these words, and try to understand

That I want you and I need you

To take the hand of a quiet man...

I love the way you hear the words unspoken

It's like you read between the minds.

You know before the silence has been broken

...well at least most of the time

But I don't know what you're going through

It must be something I didn't say to you

So hear me if you're out there

Take these words and try to understand

That I want you and I need you

To take the hand of a quiet man

Of a quiet man.
