[Prelude]
GCommunication is a skill you must acquire,
it will Chelp you through your life, it is essential
GYou have to walk into this world with your head held high,
be fluid child, Cdon't become crystalline,
Cyou're gonna have to swim with the molecules
[Chorus]
CHow can I tell yGou, you have to open up your heart
CHow can I tell yGou, be honest from the very start
How I feCel, make a stand for what is true
CTry to be decent in all that you do.
CHow can I tell yGou, you've got to give to get support
CHow can I tell yGou, a little effort & a lot more thought
CHow I feel, check the wonder in all that you see
CYou've got to get loving unconditionally.
[Verse]
GYou're gonna have to walk that road, you're gonna bear some heavy loads
CYou'll make mistakes & you'll come close
CYou're gonna get hurt by the one you love most
GYou're gonna have to take some pain, accept the loss to live again
CForgive yourself as you'll be free,
Cthere's more to love than just loving you see.
[Chorus]
CHow can I tell yGou, the laughter on a crowded bus
CHow can I tell yGou, making space when you're being crushed
How I feCel, a letter I receive from you
CA hug & a kiss when you're feeling blue
CHow can I tell yGou, the last chocolate in the box
CHow can I tell yGou, a pair of mittens & some cotton socks
CHow I feel, I'll make a fire when you are cold
CDon't worry darling I'll love you when you grow old
[Instrumental]
G 4 bars
C 4 bars
G 4 bars
C 4 bars
[Chorus]
CHow can I tellG you, 6 candles on your birthday cake
CHow can I tell yGou, a Christmas card that I helped you make
CHow I feel, when you ran in your first race
CThe time I stuck an ice cream in your face
CHow can I tellG you, the last chocolate in the box
CHow can I tell yGou, a pair of mittens & some cotton socks
CHow I feel, I'llG make a fire when you are cold
CDon't worry darling I'll love you when you grow old
