Notes: This song was originally performed with keyboard, in a way that allows for more complex chord voicings. I have adapted it in a way I think sounds best for acoustic guitar. For example, I prefer Am to Am7, though both are correct, in part because the vocal part often sings the 7. I tend to play the F(maj7) as an F/C with an open E, because that allows for an easy change of the bass note to G; otherwise, a straight F with the low root works fine for that as well. This explains some of the differences from the last version, but I have also corrected some chords in the pre-chorus and included all the lyrics at the end. Intro: ( C Cmaj7/B Am G/B ) x 2

C G/B Am F F/G (repeat for the rest) This is the book I never read These are the words I never said This is the path I'll never tread These are the dreams I'll dream instead This is the joy that's seldom spread These are the tears... The tears we shed This is the fear, This is the dread These are the contents of my head And these are the years that we have spent And this is what they represent And this is how I feel—do you know how I feel? 'Cause I don't think you know how I feel I don't think you know what I feel (Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah) I don't think you know what I feel You don't know what I feel
