F


[Verse 1]
F                            Am
You think you know me pretty well
    Dm               Bb
But how can you tell
          C             F
You never get inside my head

F
The times we talk
         Am
We never speak
   Dm                 Bb
We play hide and seek
        C                 F      Dm  C
So many things are left unsaid


[Chorus]
F             E7  A7
Why can't you see
       Dm           F
What's on the other side of me?
    Bb      F
The side of me
     Gm             C
That reaches out to you
F                  E7     A7
Sweet thoughts and dreams
     Dm               F
Like drops of rain on rippling streams
     Bb       F
That wind and bend
Gm             C
Rivers with no end
Bb             C             F      F
Flowing on the other side of me


[Verse 2]
F                       Am
It seems I always get unstrung
  Dm
I trip on my tongue
     Bb         C                  F
With words that come out something else

F                          Am
I'm so afraid the things I say
      Dm              Bb
Might chase you away
          C              F
I have to hide behind myself


[Chorus]
F             E7  A7
Why can't you see
       Dm           F
What's on the other side of me?
    Bb      F
The side of me
     Gm             C
That reaches out to you
F          E7   A7
Why must I hide
      Dm                 F
These feelings that have been denied?
Bb           F
Only you can set me free
Bb                C             F       F
See what's on the other side of me


[Bridge]
F                       Am
La la la la la la-la la-la
   Dm          Bb
La la la la la
         C           F
La la la la la la la la
F                       Am
La la la la la la-la la-la
   Dm          Bb
La la la la la
          C           F
I have to hide behind myself


[Chorus]
F             E7  A7
Why can't you see
       Dm           F
What's on the other side of me?
    Bb      F
The side of me
     Gm             C
That reaches out to you
F          E7   A7
Why must I hide
      Dm                 F
These feelings that have been denied?
Bb           F
Only you can set me free
Bb                C             F     F
See what's on the other side of me


[Outro]
       Bb            F    F
On the other side of me
       Bb            F    F
On the other side of me  (fade)
