[Em] [G]
[Am] [Em] [Am]
[C] [Em] [G]
[Am] [Em]
There's a time when the heart, you're no longer giving
You [E] gotta stand up and fight
You've [Em] known pain for so long, and you know what gone wrong
But you can't make it right
A broken heart is how you're feeling
[D] How can you go [E] on?
But [C] never raise up the tongue
[Am] There was love in our eyes [B] Keep bleeding
[D] If [C] it were you
What [D] you'd do?
Hold [Bm] on a
Hold it [Em] in Might not
Bring back [D] the dreams It [G] was New
Or just give up [D] forever
That part of [C] your life
Tell me what, what you'd do
If [Em] it were you
Never
[Am] [G]
[Em] take back all you've given in love
[Gb] No matter how hard you [E] try
Once [Em] it's over and done
You just have to let [D] go
No matter who's dying
[Em] Another waste of time
His love has left now
[D] But life must go
[Em]
[C] On like
[Am] Never thought
[B] Why can't they go?
[C] If it were you
[D] What you'd hold on
That [Em] it might
Bring back [D] the love
[G]
Or just [C] give up [D] forever
That part of [C] your life
Tell me what, what you'd do
If [Em] it were you
What was it to
If it were you
[C] Over and over
[D] I go back to a time
[C] Didn't we promise [D] Our love
We [G] died
[C] [D]
Did we [Eb] really?
[Bb]
[Bbm] [Ab]

[D] If it [C] were you
What [D] you'd hold [Bm] on
That [Em] it might
I can't bring back [D] the dreams
We [G] once knew
Or [Em] just give up [D] forever
That part of [C] your life
Tell me what, what you'd do
If it were [D]
[Em] [D] you
What [G] was it to
Or [Em] just give up [D] forever
That part of [C] your life
Tell me what, what you'd do
If it were you
If it were [D]
[Bm] [Em] [D]
[G] you
Or [C] just give up [D] forever
That part of [C] your life
Tell me what, what you'd do
If [Am] [Em] it were you
