Intro: D Gbm Bm G

Verse 1:
        A                              Gbm
Read an article about particles while sitting at the bar
     Bm                          G
How several dozen elements from several dozen stars
      D                             Gbm
Made several combinations and that made us who we are
       Bm                             A
What starts out small and simple may become a work of art
     D                              Gbm
So, baby, I went home to play these notes on my guitar
      Bm                                     G
I sat down at the keys and tried to speak straight from my heart
  Gbm                                Gbm                   A
Started small and simple, tried to make a work of art for you

Chorus:
                                    G          A
And after having sat there with my eyes closed
                  Bm7 D
All night at my piano
                         G
I've come to find that twelve notes
  A
Twelve is not enough to tell you
 Em7
Just how much I love you, baby

Twelve is not enough for you
    G      A
Now I know
                  Bm7 D
No matter how far I go
                         G
I've come to find that twelve notes
  A
Twelve is not enough to tell you
 Em7
Just how much I love you, baby
 Em7
Twelve is not enough for you
 Em7
Twelve is not enough, no, baby
 Em7
Twelve is not enough for you

Verse 2:
           D                          Gbm
I wrote an article that particles are not the centerpiece
          Bm                       G
That the center of my uniVerse is you and now I see
        D                               Gbm
That's why it's been so hard for me to write a melody
     Bm7                            G                  Gbm
Why everything I sing for you just never feels complete
G                    A
 It never feels complete

Chorus:
                                    G          A
And after having sat there with my eyes closed
                  Bm7 D
All night at my piano
                         G
I've come to find that twelve notes
  A
Twelve is not enough to tell you
 Em7
Just how much I love you, baby

Twelve is not enough for you
    G      A
Now I know
                  Bm7 D
No matter how far I go
                         G
I've come to find that twelve notes
  A
Twelve is not enough to tell you
 Em7
Just how much I love you, baby
 Em7
Twelve is not enough for you
 Em7
Twelve is not enough, no, baby
 Em7                     Gbm
Twelve is not enough for you

Bridge:
        G            A
And I swear I'd do it
       Bm          Gbm
If it could be done
            G             A
But you're more than music

You're the only one

Chorus:
                                    G          A
And after having sat there with my eyes closed
                  Bm7 D
All night at my piano
                         G
I've come to find that twelve notes
  A
Twelve is not enough to tell you
 Em7
Just how much I love you, baby

Twelve is not enough for you
    G      A
Now I know
                  Bm7 D
No matter how far I go
                         G
I've come to find that twelve notes
  A
Twelve is not enough to tell you
 Em7
Just how much I love you, baby
 Em7
Twelve is not enough for you
 Em7
Twelve is not enough, no, baby
 Em7
Twelve is not enough for you
