Matthew West - What If (Official Music Video) chords
Start Jamming...
[G] I've heard them say before to live just like you're dying, yeah
Wish I could say that's [Am] how I am, but I've been lying, [Em] yeah
Lying in my bed at night and one too many times I'm thinking
What if?
[C] What if?
[G] My biggest fear is waking up to find what mattered
Is miles away from what I [Am] spent my life chasing after?
[Em] Is my story gonna have the same two words in every chapter?
What if?
[C] What if?
[G] But last I checked this heart inside my [Am] chest
Is [Em] still beating, well I guess it's not too late
[C] What if [G] today's the only day I got?
I don't wanna waste it if it's my [Am] last shot
[Em] Oh, no regrets in the end
I wanna know, [C] I got no way
[G] I'm loving it till the world runs out
I'm lighting it up right here, [Am] right now
[Em] Oh, no regrets in the end
I wanna know, [C] I got no way
[G] See, I refuse to be a shoulda, woulda, coulda been
I can't go back in [Am] time, I don't have a DeLorean
[Em] What I'm trying to say is I don't wanna say these words again
What if?
[C] What if?
[G] But last I checked this heart inside my [Am] chest
Is still [Em] beating, well I guess it's not too late [C] No, no
What if [G] today's the only day I got?
I don't wanna waste it if it's my [Am] last shot
[Em] Oh, no regrets in the end
I wanna know, [C] I got no way
[G] I'm loving it till the world runs out
I'm lighting it up right here, [Am] right now
[Em] Oh, no regrets in the end
I wanna know, [C] I got no way
[D] I'm [Em] [C] gonna [D] dream a little bigger, [Em] burn a little brighter
[C] Stand a little taller, closer to your fire
[D] Dig a little deeper, [Em] reach a little further
[C] Love a little harder
I'm [D] gonna dream a little bigger, [Em] burn a little brighter
[C] Stand a little taller, closer to your fire
[D] Dig a little deeper, [Em] reach a little further
[C] Love a little harder
What if [G] today's the only day I got?
I don't wanna waste it if it's my [Em] last shot
Oh, no regrets in the end
I wanna know, [C] I got no way
[G] I'm loving it till the world runs out
I'm lighting it up right here, [Am] right now
[Em] No regrets in the end
I wanna know, [C] I got no way
[G] Na [Am]-na [Em] [C]
[G] [B] [E]-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na -na
I wanna know, I got no way
