      This song is so incredibly beautiful and I just needed a version that sounded like the actual song. This is
what I came up with using chordify. Hope it suits you the way it does me!

[Verse 1]
                               C
If I could speak to the breeze

What would she teach?
                          Bm
I'd ask politely for peace
                    Bm7
Or some guidance at least
                              Am7
Perhaps she'd tell me to leave
                                      Bm7        Bm
Conceal the secrets in the air that I breathe


[Pre-Chorus]
                          Cmaj7
If I could speak to the sea

What would she preach?
            C               Bm7
I'd ask her what does it mean
                       Bm
To know the depths of belief?
                          Am7
Perhaps she'd guide me beneath
                                    Bm
Reveal the meaning in the fathoms unseen


[Chorus]
                 G   C
Then they'd say reality
              Bm
Was never for me
G    Am7
Reality
              Bm7
Was never for me, never for me

[Verse 2]
Bm           A          C
If I could speak to the trees

What would they plea?
                                Bm
I'd watch the wind thieve their seeds

Lend them moments to grieve
                               Am7
Perhaps they'd bleed just like me
                                          Bm7
Deliver their message in the words that I read


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                       C
If I could speak to the leaves
                 Cmaj7
What would they heed?
              C            Bm7
I'd ask them what do they seek
           Bm             G
As they descend from the trees
                           Am7
Perhaps they'd rest at my feet
                                      Bm7
Administer healing in the tea that I drink


[Chorus]
Bm              G    C
Then they'd say reality
                Bm
Was never for me
     Am7
Reality
               Bm7          Bm       C
Was never for me, never for me


[Verse 3]
                 Em
How am I to understand
           D
Everything I am
                                     C
If I don't look beyond the thoughts I have?
                             Em
Learning that it takes some time
                 D
To separate the mind
                     C
And I just wonder, now
                         Em
If all that I have ever known
                        D
Is all that I was ever shown
                                   C
Questioning who sees behind these eyes
                    Em
Maybe if I find a reason
                        D
That lasts beyond the seasons

           G    C
I'd ask if reality
              Bm
Was ever for me
      Am7    Am
Reality  (Ah-Oh)
              Bm
Was never for me, never for me


[Outro]
                    C
If I could see the supreme

What would he think?
                        G
If he stood in front of me

Would I believe?
            Bm         Am
He'd ask me to take a seat

Pour us a drink
                        Bm
And show me all I could be
