Even In The Quietest Moments


Song: Even In the Quietest Moments Artist: Supertramp; words and music by Rick Davies and Roger Hodgson Album: Even In the Quietest Moments (Track 3) Year: 1977 The previous version was incomplete.

D6sus4 Dmaj7sus2 And even though the sun is shining, D7 G/D well, I feel the rain, D7 G/D hear it comes again, Gm/D dear. \* Am D9 And even when you showed me, Am D9 my heart was out of tune, Dm for there's a shadow of doubt Am Cadd9 D that's not letting me find you to soon. Am D9 The music that you gave me, Am D9 the language of my soul, Dm Lord I wanna be with you, won't you Am Cadd9 D Cadd9 D let me come in from the cold? CHORUS 1 Cadd9 D Don't you let the sun fade away, Cadd9 D don't you let the sun fade away, Cadd9 D don't you let the sun be leaving, Cadd9 D */ won't you come to me soon? VERSE 2 D6sus4 Dmaj7sus2 Even though the stars are listening, D7 G/D and the oceans deep, D7 G/D Gm/D I just go to sleep. D6sus4 Dmaj7sus2 And then I create the silent movie, D7 G/D you become the star, D7 G/D is that what you are, Gm/D dear? \* Am D9 Your whisper tells a secret, Am D9 your laughter brings me joy, Dm and a wonder of feeling I'm Am Cadd9 D nature's own little boy. Am D9 But still the tears keep falling, Am D9 they're raining from the sky. Dm Well there's a lot of me got go Am Cadd9 D Cadd9 D under before I get high. CHORUS 2 Cadd9 D Don't you let the sun disappear, Cadd9 D don't you let the sun disappear, Cadd9 D don't you let the sun be leaving, Cadd9 D no, you come to me soon. BRIDGE Cadd9 D And can't be leaving my life. Cadd9 D Say that you won't be leaving my life. Cadd9 D Say won't you please, say won't you please. Cadd9 D Lord won't you come and get into my life? Cadd9 D Say won't you please, say won't you please, Cadd9 D */ oh, Lord don't go... VERSE 3 D6sus4 Dmaj7sus2 And even when the song is over, D7 G/D where have I been, D7 G/D Gm/D was it just a dream? D6sus4 Dmaj7sus2 And though your door is always open, D7 G/D where do I begin, D7 G/D may I please come in, Gm/D dear. NOTE: Strum last chord slow; each note should sound out individually, not as a whole. END
