NO WORDS   by Neil Diamond 

from the album “Home Before Dark”.


Intro:   C  F  Em  Dm   C  F  Em  Dm  C

  C                      G
No words could say how I love you

                F    C
No words could be as true

                     C7        F
I’ve looked through books and read through dictionaries

       C        G         C
But I found no words for you

    G        C         G
No words, no words, no words

    G       F     Em    Dm
Oh no, 

    G       F     Em    Dm
Oh no



     C                       G
No words can define what I’m feeling

              F       C
When I feel close to you

               C7       F
No words can bring that magic kind of healing

         C            G        C
Just as much as your touch can do

    G         C        G 
No words, no words, no words   

  G    F    Em    Dm
Oh no, 

  G    F    Em    Dm
Oh no

    C
No words

G                            C
Well I’ll admit there may be one or two

            G              C
That danced around in my head

     G                    C
But words that talk about me and you

 F#                    G     F        Em      Dm
Are better felt than said……. There……. Are…….. no

 C                      G
Words that can tell our story

              F      C
They just get in the way

            C7      F
It’s all about the feelings that you’re feeling

      C        G              C
Not about the words that you say

   G         C         G            
No words, no words, no words

    G        F       Em       Dm    
Oh no, 

    G        F       Em       Dm       
Oh no

   C
No words



 G                                C
Well I’ll admit there may be one or two

G                          C
Been swimming ‘round in my head

G                              C
But what they say about me and you

F#                   G       F       Em     Dm
Is better felt than said………..there………are…………no

 C                           G
Words that can solve life’s mystery

                   F       C
Or explain God’s eternal plan

         C7    F
We only know enough to ask the questions

     C        G     C
Not enough to understand

    G         C         G
No words, no words, no words

   G        F       Em    Dm
Oh no, 

  G            C           G
No words,   no words,   no words   

   G        F        Em          Dm
Oh no


   G         F         Em         Dm
Oh no

   C             G G G C
No words


Not 100% correct I fear but a good starter for ten. Picking the strings 
selectively, rather than strumming, has the best effect as you an use your pinkie 
on the third fret to get the little riffs he puts in to link the chord changes - I 
can play it but it's too clever for me to write!!  The words are correct to the 
track now (not like the album sleeve). I hope you enjoy it  :-)  RV
