YOU'LL NEVER KNOW (Kim Richey & Angelo)
---------------------------------------
[At least one acoustic guitar in this song has a capo at the fifth fret and
 is playing in the key of A.  But I'm going to write the chords down in the
 key of D, as if there were no capo; that's what the electrics are doing.
 Play in whichever key works best for you, and transpose accordingly.]
[D* is really alternating D & D(9); Bm7* is Bm7 & Bm7(4); G* is G & G(9);
 A* is Asus & A.]
[If you do play it in A, try these shapes: F#m7*=x44220,x44200; D*=x(5)4230.]

[intro]

D             D               Bm               Bm
  I bought a new red dress to lift my spirits up
D                D                 Bm               A
  And just like you did, honey, it cost me way too much
G                F#m                   Em7              D
  Next time you see me, I'll bet you'll take a second look
G               F#m         Em7    A
  You'll wonder why I look so good

             D*               D*                Bm7*           Bm7*
You'll never know how much I miss you, you won't see it in my face
      G*               G*         A*                      A
Never know I'll never find another that could take your place
                D*             D*        Bm7*              Bm7*
'Cause I'll be smiling when I see you, my tears won't ever show
     G*              G*       A*   A
Yeah, I might always love you
                D*    D*  Bm7*  Bm7*  G*  G*  A*  A*
But you'll never know

When I saw you out last night, you seemed so surprised
That I could walk right by and not blink an eye
To look at me, you probably think I'm doing fine
Good thing you can't read my mind

You'll never know how much I miss you, you won't see it in my face
Never know I'll never find another that could take your place
'Cause I'll be smiling when I see you, my tears won't ever show
Yeah, I might always love you
                Bm   Bm   G   G   C   C   A   A
But you'll never know [guitar solo]

You'll never know how much I miss you, you won't see it in my face
Never know I'll never find another that could take your place
'Cause I'll be smiling when I see you, my tears won't ever show
Yeah, I might always love you
                D*    D*  Bm7*  Bm7*  G*  G*  A*  A*
But you'll never know
            D*    D*  Bm7*  Bm7*  G*  G*  A*  A*
You'll never know [repeat and fade]


GUITAR SOLO:

The ~~~~ marks are bends.  But they're done with the whammy bar on
an electric guitar, so the notes bend _down_ in pitch, not up.  On an
acoustic, just throw in a little bit of vibrato.
