As If chords by A-ha

• Difficulty: Beginner

Verse 1:
G                      D
 When you point at the sky
                     C        D
What you hit will be far away
          G
Funny that



               D
With the naked eye
                    C
You might look at a star and say
          D          C            D
It's like somebody's playing with us
           Am              D
It's borderline suspicious

Chorus:
      G
As if
                        D
The hum of the heavens above
                      C     Am
Murmurs from the afterglow
            F                           C
Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows
      G
As if
                             D
I'll empty out a lake with a spoon
                          C    Am
Buy a plot of land on the moon
             F
Where we can hide away
                     C
And tend our sorrows


Verse 2:
G                     D
 Will you look at the time?

I don't know what
    C
Got over me
D
Yes
I do
G               D
 Hope you don't mind

I'll be off
     C
Momentarily
    D       C
For me to intrude
        D
In this way
         Am7
Highly unusual
          D
You might say


Chorus:
      G
As if
                                   D
Like a shirt worn thin through the years
                               C    Am
I'll lеt you down the moment I tear
        F
I can assurе you
                  C
That won't happen ever
      G
As if

You're standing
                 D
On the edge of a cliff
                           C    Am
Unaware your footing might slip
           F
I won't be there to push you back
        C
Forever

Chorus:
      G
As if
                        D
The hum of the heavens above
                      C     Am
Murmurs from the afterglow
            F                           C
Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows
      G
As if
                             D
I'll empty out a lake with a spoon
                          C    Am
Buy a plot of land on the moon
             F
Where we can hide away
                     C
And tend our sorrows
