V1

G5                         G5
Like a freeze-dried rose, you will never be,
C5                           C5
what you were, what you were to me in memory.
         G5                            G5
But if I listen to the dark, you'll embrace me like a star,
     C5           C5
envelope me, envelope me...

Prechorus

G5                             G5
If things get real for me down here,
           C5
promise to take me to before you went away -

if only for a day.
G5                              G5
If things get real for me down here,
           C5
promise to take me back to the tune we played,
  C5               D5 D5
before you went away.

Chorus
G5                 D5              C5
And if I listen to, the sound of white,
                         D5                        G5
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
                 D5                C5    D5
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white ..
           G5                G5                    C5
You're my mystery. One mystery. My mystery. One mystery.

V2
G5
My silence solidifies,
G5                    C5
until that hollow void erases you,
              C5
erases you so I can't feel at all.
         G5                               G5
But if I never feel again, at least that nothingness
                     C5             D5
will end the painful dream , of you and me...

Prechorus

G5                             G5
If things get real for me down here,
           C5
promise to take me to before you went away -

if only for a day.
G5                              G5
If things get real for me down here,
           C5
promise to take me back to the tune we played,
  C5               D5 D5
before you went away.

Chorus
G5                 D5              C5
And if I listen to, the sound of white,
                         D5                        G5
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
G5                 D5              C5
And if I listen to, the sound of white,
                         D5                        G5
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
                 D5                C5    D5
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white ..

Middle 8

E5          C5                   G5
I knelt before some strangers face,
                            D5                      ( B5 )
Well I'd never have the courage or belief to trust this place,
E5                      C5
But I dropped my head, 'cos it felt like lead,
G5                                             B5      C5 D5
  And I'm sure I felt your fingers through my hair...

G5                 D5              C5
And if I listen to, the sound of white,
                         D5                        G5
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
                 D5                C5    D5
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white
D5            G5     D5
The sound of white,
D5            C5     D5
The sound of white,
D5            G5          G5 C5 C5 G5
The sound of white,
