CHeart Please Be Still don’t Ftell her you’re aching
CYou’re pumping the tears into my G7eyes
She Cjust mustn’t know the Fstory of your breaking
CI can’t smile when G7part of me Ccries
When she played around I Fthought that she was joking
D7Then I learned the truth you G7had done been broken
CSo heart please be still don’t Ftell her you’re aching
CYou just mustn’t G7tell her on Cme
Heart please be still don’t Ftell her of your sorrow
CI’m afraid that your beating is too G7loud
They Csay the night is long Fbefore the bright tomorrow
CA silver lining G7to every Ccloud
Wish the cloud would break beFfore she hears you’re pleading
D7I don’t want her to know G7that she’s all I’m needing
CSo heart please be still don’t Ftell her you’re aching
CYou just mustn’t G7tell her on Cme
