[Intro]

[just the note][just the note][chord]
      Bb             G           F


 [Verse 1]
C                  G        C                       D
I`ve spent to many evenings on just one side of the bed
G
saving a place for you.
C               G          C                     D
One sided conversations wonderin` what you might said.
D

I bet you do that too.
Bb Dm     Bb                     D
It always seems life gets in the way,
Bb  Dm    Bb                 D  Am
but isn`t this our choice to make?


[Chorus]
Bb              Dm          G        D
What if all the clocks were suddenly broken?
Bb        D        Dm      D       Bb
Then time couldn`t tell us when to go.
Bb            Dm            G        D
What if we forgot what`s standing between us?
Bb          Eb    F   Bb
We wouldn`t be so all alone.
Bb         D C   Bb      D   Bb
What could I say to have you stay?


[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C                        G
Oh God, what`s happenin` to me?
C                       D
I`ve got too much goin` on,
G
but there`s something about this girl.
C                   G
I`m working day and day out -
C                      G
I find my time is just gone.
G
But could she change my world?
Bb  Dm   Bb                           D  Am
Not sure if she`s even thinkin` `bout me.
Bb   Dm      Bb                       D
Just play it cool, take a breath, and see.


[Chorus]
Bb              Dm          G        D
What if all the clocks were suddenly broken?
Bb        D        Dm      D       Bb
Then time couldn`t tell us when to go.
Bb            Dm            G        D
What if we forgot what`s standing between us?
Bb          Eb    F   Bb
We wouldn`t be so all alone.
Bb         D C   Bb      D   Bb
What could I say to have you stay?


[Verse 3]
C                     G
I don`t know what I`m doing
C                      D
inside of some sort of dream.
G
How did I get here?
C                   G
My thoughts are all about him,
C                        G
but tell me how can that be?
G                 D
I like him that`s clear.
Bb  Dm      Bb                     D
Sometimes a door`s put in front of you.
Bb Dm          Bb        G       F
Do you keep it closed or walk on through?


[Chorus]
Bb              Dm          G        D
What if all the clocks were suddenly broken?
Bb        D        Dm      D       Bb
Then time couldn`t tell us when to go.
Bb            Dm            G        D
What if we forgot what`s standing between us?
Bb          Eb    F   Bb
We wouldn`t be so all alone.
Bb         D C
What could I say?
D            G
What would I tell?
G            D   Bb      D   C
What would I say to have you stay?
F           G
to have you stay
        F           G
(yeah), to have you stay (oh)
F         Dm  C
What if I stay?
