Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Bm][G][Cm][G][Bm][G][Cm]
[Bm]

[Verse 1]
There's [Bm]a word for it
[Cm]And words don't mean
[Bm]a thing
There's name for [G]it[Cm]
And names make all the difference
in [Fm]the world
Some things can never be [Db]spoken
Some things cannot be [F]pronounced
That word does not ex[G]ist in any language
It [C]will never be [Cm]uttered by a hu[Eb]man mouth
[Gm]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][G][Cm][Bm][G][Cm]
[C][G][Bm]

[Verse 2]
Let X make a [Bm]statement[Cm]
Let breath pass through those
cracked [G]lips[Bm]
That man was my hero
[G]And [C]now [Cm]that word has been
taken from [G]us[Fm]
Some things can never be [C#]spoken
Some things cannot be [F]pronounced
That word does not ex[G]ist in any language
It [C]will never be uttered by
a hu[Eb]man mouth
[Gm]

[Verse 3]
[F]
Give me [A]back my [G]name[F]
Give me [A]back my [G]name
[F]Something has been changed
in [C]my life
[F]Something has been changed
in [C]my life
[F]Something must be returned [C]to us
[F]Something must me returned [C]to[Bm][G][Cm][Bm][G]
