Note:  Keith Whitley and Alison Krauss both recorded this song.
Surprisingly, they used the same key.  Eb and D# are the same
note, same key.  Since I have Whitley's noted in Eb I decided to
note this in D#.  These two songs look different from each other but be
assured this is the same key.  It was strictly up to me whether
I called it Eb or D#  You can capo the first fret and play these
chords ignoring the sharp symbol.

       WHEN YOU SAY NOTHING AT ALL    Alison Krauss

D#                    G#         A#          D#    D# G# A#  
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
D#               G#            A#            D#   D# G#  A#  
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
G#                     A# 
Try as I may I could never explain
D#                   G#            A# 
What I hear when you don't say a thing

CHORUS:
      D#                        G#            A# 
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
D#                                         G#     A#   
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
    D#          A#                  G#                   A#    G#  A# 
A touch of your hand says you can catch me if I ever I fall
G#                      A#                      D#
Yea, you say it best, when you say nothing at all


D#                 G#             A#         D#   D# G#  A# 
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
D#           G#                A#             D#    D# G#  A# 
But when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
G#                       A# 
Old Mr. Webster could never define
D#                              G#        A# 
What's being said between your heart and mine
