VERSE 1


F
            C                                          FThere's the river, there's the house, and there's the church.
                     CAnd there's us years ago.
F             C                               F Deep in your garden where the nettle met the rose
                     CIs where we hide ourselves.


PRE-CHORUS


Bb                             CYes we were just kids, but you couldn't tell us that.
      BbThese are the garden rules,
       CThat's what you always said.


CHORUS
  
           BbOh, you will never know,
           CHow much I love you so,
             Bb   Oh, you will never know,
           CHow much I love you.


VERSE 2


You would call the garden rules out like commands,
And we would all obey.
But you'd stifle giddy laughter as you spoke,
And puncture the pretend.

PRE-CHORUS

And we would chase our tails until the sun forgot to shine.
And our parents called our names,
Until just you and I were left.

CHORUS

Oh, you will never know,
How much I love you so,
Oh you will never know,
How much I love you.


BRIDGE

          FFrom your house we walk the river, 
       Cto the church by the silent fields,
            FAmongst the lavender of headstones,
        CAnd the larks in our Sunday clothes.
     Bb                          CYour father comes to you as he's looking at his watch,
                    Bb                              CYou leave me with a kiss on my quickly heating cheek.

CHORUS

Oh, you will never know,
How much I love you so.
Oh you will never know,
How much I love you.
Oh you will never know,
How much I love you so,
Oh, you will never know,
How much I love you.
