INTRO: G D C C-D 
 
G		D 
Like a freeze-dried rose, you will never be,  
C					D 
what you were, what you were to me in memory.  
G				D 
But if I listen to the dark, you'll embrace me like a star,  
	C		C 	D 
envelope me, envelope me... 
  
 
G			      D 
If things get real for me down here,  
    C				       D 
promise to take me to before you went away - if only for a day.  
G			      D 
If things get real for me down here,  
    C						     D 
promise to take me back to the tune we played before you went away.  
 
CHORUS 
G		D 
And if I listen to, the sound of white,  
C			D		     G 
sometimes I hear your smile, and breath your light.  
G		D		C	D 
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white ..  
G			       D		    C		 
You're my mystery. One mystery. My mystery. One mystery.  
 
G		D 
My silence solidifies, 
 	C				D 
until that hollow void erases you, erases you so I can't feel at all. 
G				D		      
But if I never fell again, at least that nothingness  
		C			D 
will end the painful dream, of you and me...  
 
G			      D		      C 
If things get real for me down here, promise to take me to  
			D	G 
before you went away, if only for a day.  
G			       D		       C 
If things get real for me down here, promise to take me back to 
 				  D 
the tune we played before you went away.  
 
CHORUS 
G		D 
And if I listen to, the sound of white,  
C			D		     G 
sometimes I hear your smile, and breath your light.  
G		D 
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white,  
C			D		     G 
sometimes I hear your smile, and breath your light.  
G			       D		    C		D	 
And if I listen to the sound of white? 
 
BRIDGE: 
Em	   C		      G	 
I knelt before some strangers face, 
  		D			Em  
Well I'd never have the courage or belief to trust this place,  
Em		C		     G  
But I dropped my head, 'cos it felt like lead,  
 
G			B(single strum)		C	D 
And I'm sure I felt your fingers through my hair...  
 
CHORUS 
G		D 
And if I listen to, the sound of white,  
C			D		      
sometimes I hear your smile, and breath your light.  
G		D		C	D 
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white.  
D		G		D		 
The sound of white,  
C		D 
The sound of white, 
 G 
The sound of white.
