The Moody Blues
"The Voice"
written by Justin Hayward

It sounds the best with a capo on the 1st fret

Verse 1:

 Em                G                 C
Won't you take me back to school? I need to learn the golden rule.

 Em              G                C
Won't you lay it on the line?  I need to hear it just one more time.

G             Am
Oh, won't you tell me again?

G            Dm7
Oh, can you feel it?

G              Am             Em
Oh, Won't you tell me again tonight?


Verse 2:

Em               G                 C
Each and every heart it seems is bounded by a world of dreams.

Em               G              C
Each and every rising sun is greeted by a lonely one.

G             Am
Oh won't you tell me again?

G            Dm7
Oh, can you feel it?

G             Am             Em       C
Oh won't you tell me again tonight?


Bridge 1:

      D          Am7      D
'Cos out on the ocean of life my love

        Bm7       E7            Am         G
There's so many storms we must rise above?

         F
Can you hear the spirit calling

          A7
As it's carried across the waves?

         Dm       C            G          F
You're already falling, it's calling you back to face the music

         A7
And the song that is coming through,

         Dm       C         Bb              Am7       D
You're already falling, the one that it's calling is you.


Verse 3:

Em               G                C
Make a promise, take a vow  and trust your feelings, it's easy now.

Em               G                C
Understand the voice within and feel the changes already beginning.

G              Am
Oh, won't you tell me again?

G            Dm7
Oh, can you feel it?

G              Am             Em        C
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?

Oh, won't you tell me again?

Oh, can you feel it?

G              Am             Em        C      Em       C
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?.........tonight?


Bridge 2:

     D        Am7          D
And how many words have I got to say

    Bm7       E7           Am       G
And how many times will it be this way

           F
With your arms around the future

          A7
And your back up against the past?

         Dm       C             G         F
You're already falling, it's calling you on to face the music

         A7
And the song that is coming through,

         Dm       C         Bb              Am7       D
You're already falling, the one that it's calling is you.
