What I Really Meant To Say ö(recorded by) Cyndi Thomson
CAPO: 1
INTRO: C ö F
VERSE 1:
F
It took me by surprise When I saw you standing there
C
Close enough to touch Breathing the same air
F
You asked me how Iāve been··
Am G F
I guess thatās when I smiled and said just fine,
G
Oh but baby, I was lying
CHORUS 1:
C G Am
What I really meant to say Is Iām dying here inside
F C
And I miss you more each day, thereās not a night I havenāt cried
G Dm Em F
And baby hereās the truth Iām still in love with you,
(N.C.) C F
Thatās what I really meant to say
VERSE 2:
F
And as you walked away the echo of my words
C
Cut just like a knife cut so deep it hurt
F Am G F
I held back the tears held onto my pride and watched you go
G
I wonder if youāll ever know
CHORUS 1: [Slight changes]
C G Am
What I really meant to say Is Iām dying here inside
F C
And I miss you more each day, thereās not a night I havenāt cried
G Dm F
And baby hereās the truth Iām still in love with you,
CHORUS 2:
C G Am
What I really meant to say Is Iām dying here inside
F C
And I miss you more each day, thereās not a night I havenāt cried
G Dm Em F
And baby hereās the truth Iām still in love with you,
(N.C.) C F
Thatās what I really meant to say
