Em  C (2x)


Verse 1:
          Em
There's a time when the heart can no longer give in
                D
You'll try to stand up and fight
              C
You've known pain for so long and you know what's gone wrong
         D
But you can't make it right
Em
Another broken heart is all your feeling
     D
How can you go on
             C                       Am
But the memories of times there was love in your eyes
      B7
Keep leading me on
🎸

Chorus:
            C
If it were you
           D           G            C
Would you hold on and hope that it might
                 D              Em
Bring back the dreams we once knew
         C         D          G            C
Or just give up forever that part of your life
C
Tell me what you would do
            Em  G
If it were you


Verse 2:
         Em
You can never take back all you've given in love
           D
No matter how hard you try
          C
Once it's over and done you just have to let go
          D
Though a part of you died
Em
Another waste of time is all that's left now
     D
But life must go on
         C                            Am
All the nights that we spent, never thought they would end
     B7
Why can't they go on


Chorus:
            C
If it were you
           D           G            C
Would you hold on and hope that it might
                 D              Em
Bring back the dreams we once knew
         C         D          G            C
Or just give up forever that part of your life
C
Tell me what you would do
            Em
If it were you
D           Em
If it were you
Em
Tell me what would you do
       D    Em
If it were you


Bridge:
C                D
Over and over I go back through time
Em                     D
Didn't we promise our love until we die
G                      Am
Asking you deep down inside
               A#m
Did we really try


Instrumental:
A#m  G#  F#  G#
A#m  G#  F#  Fm


Verse:
G
Another broken heart is all that is left
     Am
But life must go on
         C                            Am
All the nights that we spent, never thought they would end
     B7
Why can't they go on


Chorus:
            C
If it were you
           D           G            C
Would you hold on and hope that it might
                 D              Em
Bring back the dreams we once knew
         C         D          G            C
Or just give up forever that part of your life

         C         D          G            C
Or just give up forever that part of your life
C
Tell me what you would do
C              D  G  C  D  Em
If it were you
         C         D          G            C
Or just give up forever that part of your life
C
Tell me what you would do
