[Verse]
G       C      G       C
Talk is cheap, words a dime a dozen
G           C              Dsus4  D
Heart still hangs on every line
G           C           G            C
The fall of Man will be written in a wordless headline
G             C               Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D
Streamed over cloudless sunny skies

[Chorus]
   Em         G              A7
If silence is golden call me gilded
     C         G             C                    G
I am quiet in love, my heart beats what you speak of
    Am                      Em      D      A7
For love I can show but may fail to tell you so
   C             D               G
If love remain unheard may it be known

[Verse]
G     C            G                   C
Saw a man couldn't speak his mind he'd lost in starlight
G        C                 Dsus4  D
Kept his eyes glued to the ground
G         C               G              C
Tired and hungry read his sign under the faded stoplight
G            C               Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D
His dog well fed and smiling proud
   Em         G              A7
If silence is golden call me gilded

[Chorus]
   Em         G              A7
If silence is golden call me gilded
   Em         G              A7
If silence is golden call me gilded
   Em         G              A
If silence is golden call me gilded
     C         G             C                    G
I am quiet in love, my heart beats what you speak of
    Am                      Em      D      A7
For love I can show but may fail to tell you so
   C             G
If love remain unheard
   A             G
If love remain unheard
   C             G
If love remain unheard may it be known
