They can print a thousand pages

All the paper filled with words

And a multitude of metaphors

Ab Abmaj7

That I have never heard

Bbm Eb7

Makes no difference to me

Bbm Eb7 Ab Abmaj7

In the end, well, I'll say "I've read it all"

Ab Abmaj7

But as the weight of these words

Ab Abmaj7

Start to settle in my mind

Ab Abmaj7

I'll never wait for a person

Ab Abmaj7

To genuinely find

Bbm Eb7

Something deep inside myself

Bbm Eb7 Ab Abmaj7 Ab Abmaj7

Something more than just the books on my shelf

The books on my shelf
