If Only chords by Maria Taylor

Some chord shapes that work for the intro/verse chords:

A/D:     x576xx   xx0220
A/E:     x776xx   xx2220
Amaj7/E: x766xx   xx2120

The rest of the chords are pretty straightforward.

Strum/Picking pattern during the intro: She adds or removes the * note occasionally. Amaj7/E is played on the
upbeats. I added the E bass note on the downbeat which I find helps keep my time.

Intro:

Verse:
   A/E  A/D       A/E       Amaj7/E
If only you could know
                    A/E     A/D    A/E    Amaj7/E
Silhouettes on your shadows
        A/E A/D    A/E      Amaj7/E
Will it all be the same?
                   A/E      A/D    A/E    Amaj7/E
I go back where we started
         A/E     A/D     A/E    Amaj7/E
Where we gave it all too soon
                      A/E         A/D    A/E    Amaj7/E
But you know it comes back to you

Chorus:
           A
So take me down
A                                A/D
'Cause I see you when I close my eyes
       E                     F#m
Turn a corner, take me by surprise
                 E                  F#m
And what doesn't work on this first try
      E                       A
Maybe better in the next life
A                                  A/D
And we'll laugh until the sun will rise
       E                        F#m
Try to talk but only get tongue-tied
     E                       F#m
So I live until the living's done
      E                           A
Got a feeling there's another one

Break:
