                         Bm                          Em7add2     Bm
What if you're right?   And he was just another nice guy
                           Em7add2
What if you're right?
                         Bm                          Em7add2        Bm
What if it's true?  They say the cross will only make a fool of you
                           Em7add2
And what if it's true?
                   A/C#
What if he takes his place in history
                 D
With all the prophets and the kings
                (F#/Bb)
Who taught us love and came in peace
             Bm                                  Em7/A
But then the story ends       What then?

Chorus

D                                         Em
But what if you're wrong?      What if there's more?

Bm7                                           G
What if there's hope you never dreamed of hoping for?
                         D                                 Em
What if you jump?         And just close your eyes?
                    Bm7                                    G
What if the arms that catch you, catch you by surprise?
                     Bm                    Em           Bm    Em7add2
What if He's more than enough?      What if it's love?


Verse 2
                   Bm                        Em7add2              Bm
What if you dig  Way down deeper than your simple-minded friends
                     Em7add2
What if you dig?
                    Bm                            Em7add2         Bm
What if you find  A thousand more unanswered questions down inside
                     Em7add2
That's all you find?
                        A/C#
What if you pick apart the logic
               D
And begin to poke the holes
                                    (F#/Bb)
What if the crown of thorns is no more
          Bm                                           Em7/A
Than folklore that must be told         and retold?


Chorus

D                                         Em
But what if you're wrong?      What if there's more?

Bm7                                            G
What if there's hope you never dreamed of hoping for?
                       D                               Em
What if you jump?         And just close your eyes?

Bm7                                                    G
What if the arms that catch you, catch you by surprise?
                     Bm                    Em           Bm
What if He's more than enough?      What if it's love?
